Professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction, this military study report analyzes the multiagency structure that plans, synchronizes, and executes U.S. foreign policy at the regional level.

The author wades through the myriad of interagency structures to analyze current practices and how they are viewed internally by the agencies and individuals involved as well as how they appear to those most affected, our friends and foes in the respective regions. The need for process improvement is well illustrated through his examination of how the interagency worked or did not work during various contingency operations from Vietnam through the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. The author concludes by developing a proposed reform model and discussing how it can best be implemented. US Interagency Regional Foreign Policy Implementation is a must read for those involved in developing foreign policy or directing contingency and/or peacekeeping operations in the field.
