As the United States continues its
involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan, it is critical to understand the effects of military deployment not only on service members but also on the health
and well-being of their children and spouses. Examining the
functioning of a sample of youth in military families who
applied to a free camp for children of military personnel, the
researchers assess how these youth are coping with parental
deployment, with attention to their emotional, social, and
academic functioning, while also examining challenges faced
by their caregivers.
Low-income students continue
to perform at considerably lower
levels than their higher-income
peers in reading and mathematics. Research has shown that
students’ skills and knowledge often deteriorate during the
summer months, with low-income students facing the largest losses. Instruction during the summer has the potential to
stop these losses and propel students toward higher achievement. The authors show how school districts and summer
programming providers can benefit from lessons learned in
other programs in terms of developing strategies to maximize
program effectiveness and quality, student participation, and
strategic partnerships and funding. Recommendations include
capitalizing on a range of funding sources, engaging in longterm planning to ensure adequate attendance and hiring, and
demonstrating positive student outcomes.

This volume examines the effects that parental deployments
can have on children’s academic performance, as well as
on their emotional and behavioral well-being in the school
setting. The researchers found that children whose parents
have been deployed for 19 months or more since 2001 have
achievement scores that are modestly lower than and statistically different from scores of those who have experienced less
or no parental deployment.

NewYork City’s Experiment
with Schoolwide
Performance Bonuses: Final
Evaluation Report
Julie A. Marsh, Matthew G. Springer,
Daniel F. McCaffrey, Kun Yuan, Scott
Epstein, Julia Koppich, Nidhi Kalra,
Catherine DiMartino, Art (Xiao) Peng
The New York City Department of
Education and the United Federation
of Teachers implemented the Schoolwide Performance Bonus
Program in 2007–2008 in a random sample of the city’s
high-needs public schools; its broad objective was to improve
student performance through school-based financial incentives. This independent analysis of test scores, surveys, and
interviews found that the program did not improve student
achievement, perhaps in part because conditions needed to
motivate staff were not achieved and because all the schools
already faced high levels of accountability pressure.

Alternative Fuels for Military
Applications
James T. Bartis, Lawrence Van Bibber
The U.S. Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force have all
established programs geared toward reducing dependence
on the use of fossil fuels in tactical weapon systems, such as
aircraft, combat ships and vehicles, and supporting equipment.
From a technical standpoint, a number of alternative fuels
can meet military requirements, but it is uncertain how much
these fuels will cost and what effect they may have on the environment, particularly in terms of greenhouse gas emissions.
This volume examines alternative fuels that are candidates for
military applications, such as tactical weapon systems, focusing on economic viability, greenhouse gas emissions, military
utility, and current alternative fuel development, testing, and
certification efforts within the Department of Defense.

Near-Term Opportunities for
Integrating Biomass into the
U.S. Electricity Supply
Technical Considerations
David S. Ortiz, Aimee E. Curtright, Constantine Samaras,
Aviva Litovitz, Nicholas Burger
In light of potential regulatory limits on greenhouse-gas emissions, requirements for greater use of renewable fuels, and
higher prices for some conventional fossil resources, over the
course of the next few decades, biomass is expected to become
an increasingly important source of electricity, heat, and liquid
fuel. This report focuses on using biomass in coal-fired electricity plants, discussing such issues as plant-site modifications,
changes in operations, associated costs, and logistical issues.

Supplying Biomass to
Power Plants
A Model of the Costs of Utilizing Agricultural
Biomass in Cofired Power Plants
Tom LaTourrette, David S. Ortiz, Eileen Hlavka, Nicholas Burger,
Gary Cecchine
U.S. power plants are seeking to diversify their fuel sources,
and biomass energy, a renewable resource with generally lower
emissions than fossil fuels, has a large, diverse base. To make
decisions about investing in a facility that utilizes biomass,
prospective users need information about its costs and constraints. The model developed in this volume estimates the
cost and availability of biomass energy resources from U.S.
agricultural lands from the perspective of an individual power
plant, in order to provide prospective users with information
about infrastructure, logistics, costs, and constraints for the
full biomass life cycle.

Promoting
Psychological
Resilience in the
U.S. Military
Lisa S. Meredith, Cathy D. Sherbourne,
Sarah J. Gaillot, Lydia Hansell,
Hans V. Ritschard, Andrew M. Parker,
Glenda Wrenn
As U.S. service members deploy
for extended periods on a repeated
basis, their ability to cope with
the stress of deployment may be
challenged. Though a growing number of programs and
strategies provided by the military and civilian sectors are
available to encourage and support psychological resilience to
stress for service members and families, little is known about
the effectiveness of these programs on developing resilience.
The authors present the results of a focused literature review
designed to identify evidence-informed factors for promoting
psychological resilience, review a subset of military resilience
programs to determine the extent to which they included
those evidence-informed factors, and present findings to assist
the Department of Defense in promoting resilience among
service members and their families.

Uncertainty surrounding
deployments, long work hours,
and family separation causes
significant stress on military
personnel and has negative
effects on retention. RAND’s
Focus on the Well-Being
of the Military, Veterans, and Their Families
provides resources to help with a wide variety of
challenges faced by military members, spouses, and
their children, including readiness for deployment;
quality and cost-effective health care for current
and retired military personnel and their families; the
mental health and cognitive needs of U.S. service
members returning from Afghanistan and Iraq;
the health and employment problems that hinder
veterans’ reintegration into civilian life; the role
of military spouses; and the need for
military-sponsored child care. Explore

The War Within
Preventing Suicide in the
U.S. Military
Rajeev Ramchand, Joie D. Acosta,
Rachel M. Burns, Lisa H. Jaycox,
Christopher G. Pernin
Since late 2001, U.S. military forces
have been engaged in conflicts
around the globe, most notably in
Iraq and Afghanistan, that have
exacted a substantial toll on soldiers,
marines, sailors, and airmen. This
toll goes beyond the well-publicized casualty figures; it extends
to the stress that repetitive deployments can have on the
individual service member and his or her family. This stress
can manifest itself in different ways—increased divorce rates,
spouse and child abuse, mental distress, substance abuse—but
one of the most troubling manifestations is suicide, which is
increasing across the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD).
The increase in suicides among members of the military has
raised concern among policymakers, military leaders, and the
population at large. Although DoD and the military services
have had efforts under way to deal with the increase in suicides
among their members, the Assistant Secretary of Defense for
Health Affairs asked R AND to review the current evidence
detailing suicide epidemiology in the military, identify stateof-the-art suicide-prevention programs, describe and catalog
suicide-prevention activities in DoD and across each service,
and recommend ways to ensure that the activities in DoD and
across each service reflect state-of-the-art prevention science.

Assessing the Performance of
Military Treatment Facilities
Nancy Nicosia, Barbara O. Wynn, John A. Romley
Working to transform business practices within the Military
Health System, the U.S. Department of Defense has considered setting targets for health care utilization in its military
treatment facilities (MTFs) and rewarding or penalizing these
facilities according to their performance. In this volume, the
authors discuss the potential and limitations of using MTF utilization and costs as measures of MTF leaders’ performance.

Developing Military Health
Care Leaders
Insights from the Military, Civilian,
and Government Sectors
Sheila Nataraj Kirby, Julie A. Marsh, Jennifer Sloan McCombs,
Harry J. Thie, Nailing Xia, Jerry M. Sollinger
The current wartime environment, rising health care costs, and
an increased focus on joint operations have led to recommendations for Military Health System (MHS) transformation.
Lessons learned in the civilian and government sectors hold
importance for transforming the way in which MHS identifies
and develops health care officers with high leadership potential
for senior executive positions.

“Overall, this is a great piece of work.
It is eminently timely and relevant to
large discussions of the future of U.S.
transportation policy as well as the
ongoing economy-boosting and job-creation discussions. It is wellresearched and reflective of the state of the relevant literature. It
will be an enormous contribution to the debate.”
—Robert Puentes, Senior Fellow, Brookings Institution
The authors review the literature on the economic outcomes
of highway infrastructure spending, which constitutes the
largest share of federal spending on transportation infrastructure. They highlight the connections between highway spending and the economy and then analyze the literature to trace
the effects that highway infrastructure has on productivity,
output, and employment.

The Option of an Oil Tax to Fund
Transportation and Infrastructure
Keith Crane, Nicholas Burger, Martin Wachs
Federal spending on surface-transportation infrastructure
outpaces federal taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel. Increasing fuel efficiency means that fuel-purchase expenditures
have dropped, so real revenue generated from these taxes has
declined. A percentage tax on crude oil and imported refinedpetroleum products consumed in the United States could fund
U.S. transportation infrastructure.

Dilemmas

Social Science for
Stabilization
and Reconstruction
Paul K. Davis, editor
Contributors: Claude Berrebi, Christopher
S. Chivvis, Paul K. Davis, Sarah Olmstead,
Julie E. Taylor, Véronique Thelen,
Stephen Watts, Elizabeth Wilke
Governments intervening in postconflict states find themselves beset
with numerous challenges and profound dilemmas: It is often
unclear how to proceed because measures that may improve
conditions in one respect may undermine them in another.
This volume emphasizes that stabilization and reconstruction
(S&R) success depends on success in each of four domains—
political, social, security, and economic—highlighting their
interactions and the idea that the failure of any component
can doom S&R as a whole. The book focuses on a number of
dilemmas—such as short- versus long-term goals—and suggests
how these dilemmas can be confronted depending on context.

Deterrence in an Age of Piracy
Thérèse Delpech
Foreword by James A. Thomson
“This book grew out of a conversation that Thérèse Delpech and
I had on the margins of a conference in 2007. She is among
France’s most prominent scholars, analysts, and officials
dealing with security issues, especially nuclear weapons. In that
conversation, she told me that she had long admired the work on
deterrence that was done in the 1950s and ’60s, much of it at
RAND in Santa Monica. She lamented the fact that she had
not encountered the same level of reflection on today’s deterrence
challenges. . . . Thus, we hatched the plan for this book. . . .
Thérèse has spelled out the need for revitalization of thinking
about nuclear weapons, a challenge that we take seriously at
RAND; reviewed the key concepts of past deterrence thinking
and their development up to now; reviewed the key security
challenges of today and their relations to nuclear weapons;
demonstrated that some of the past concepts remain relevant
to today; and urged the new generation of defense and security
analysts to turn their attention to nuclear deterrence, much as
she did 30 years ago.”

R AND President and CEO (1989–2011)

Several key U.S. allies engage in security cooperation, albeit
on a smaller scale than the United States. To see what the U.S.
Air Force can learn from these efforts, the authors examined
how and why three allies—Australia, France, and the United
Kingdom—provide security cooperation and highlight three
key areas that could benefit from further collaboration: staff
talks, exercises, and training followed by exercises.

Afghan Peace Talks
A Primer
James Shinn, James Dobbins
“Jim Shinn and Jim Dobbins have
prepared the perfect guide to an
Afghan peace process,
one which will help officials navigate
their way toward an agreement
and [help] observers understand
what is going on. Theirs is a very
realistic assessment of the obstacles
in the path to peace, but the authors
nevertheless make a strong case for setting out
on the road, and [they] provide some very useful guideposts
along the way.”
—Lakhdar Brahimi, former head of the UN Mission
in Afghanistan (2001–2004)
“This well-informed and insightful primer for peace talks on
Afghanistan provides a careful review of the prospects, parties,
and their expected positions—and an outcome with factors
influencing it—in a succinct and well-presented text. A must
read for anyone interested in this critical and now emerging
subject.”
—Thomas R. Pickering, former Under Secretary

“A thoughtful and timely contribution on an important issue by
two knowledgeable analysts and experienced practitioners.”

Benjamin S. Lambeth
“Ben Lambeth marries his masterful
grasp of air warfare to a tough but
fair audit of Israeli strategy that
leaves little room for debate over the
basics. . . . It would be hard to overstate its educational merit.”
—Colin S. Gray, Professor of Strategic Studies,
University of Reading
“As always, Ben Lambeth’s research is wide-ranging and
thorough, focusing here on the challenge of responding to
asymmetric wars. . . . Ben Lambeth deserves great respect for his
effort to appraise the many contending views in his assessment of
that experience.”
—Major General David Ivry, Commander, Israel Air Force
(IAF) (1977–1982)
“Ben Lambeth’s brilliant study correctly identifies lack of
realistic strategy as the main cause of Israel’s disappointing
2006 Lebanon campaign. He masterfully shows that there are
no silver-bullet substitutes for well-conceived, realistic combinedarms offensives.”
—John F. Lehman, Secretary of the United States Navy
(1981–1987)
The objective of a negotiated peace in Afghanistan has been
firmly embraced by most of the potential parties to a treaty.
Arriving at an agreement about the sequencing, timing, and
prioritization of peace terms is likely to be difficult, however,
given the divergence in the parties’ interests and objectives.
The U.S. objective in these negotiations should be a stable
and peaceful Afghanistan that neither hosts nor collaborates
with terrorists. The authors recommend that the United States
seek the appointment of a United Nations–endorsed facilitator
to promote agreement on such issues as a venue for the talks,
participation, and the agenda.
“Ben Lambeth, an internationally respected expert on air
warfare, has known the IAF’s leaders for three decades and has
flown in three types of fighters with the IAF. This important
work was begun under my watch as the 18th Chief—with
my strongest endorsement and support. His conclusions offer
indispensable insights for American leaders and for our
friends and allies around the world as we continue to refine
our thinking regarding the uses of air power in meeting the
challenges of the 21st century.”

Iran’s Nuclear
Future
Critical U.S. Policy Choices
Lynn E. Davis, Jeffrey Martini,
Alireza Nader, Dalia Dassa Kaye,
James T. Quinlivan, Paul Steinberg
As Iran’s nuclear program evolves,
policymakers will face a series of
critical choices involving complex
considerations and trade-offs. To
be successful, the United States
will need to find ways to influence
Iran’s calculations of costs and benefits while also reassuring
regional partners so as to reduce Gulf states’ potential interest
in developing their own nuclear weapons and dissuade Israel
from pursuing unilateral military actions.

The Next Supreme Leader
Succession in the Islamic Republic of Iran
Alireza Nader, David E. Thaler, S. R. Bohandy
Only two men have held the position of Supreme Leader
since the Islamic Republic of Iran was established in 1979:
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his predecessor, Ayatollah
Ruhollah Khomeini. As Khamenei ages and rumors of his ill
health intensify, policymakers and analysts need to consider
the various scenarios for succession, since the outcome will
determine the Islamic Republic’s direction. This volume
identifies three key factors that will shape succession of the
next Supreme Leader and outlines five alternative scenarios for
the post-Khamenei era.

Coping with a
Nuclearizing Iran
James Dobbins, Alireza Nader,
Dalia Dassa Kaye, Frederic Wehrey
It is not inevitable that Iran will
acquire nuclear weapons or even that
it will gain the capacity to quickly
produce them. Analysts continually
push their estimates for such an event
further into the future. Nevertheless,
it is reasonable to assume that, some
time in the coming decade, Iran will
acquire such a capability. Although most scholarly studies have
focused on how to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, what has so far been lacking is a policy framework for
dealing with Iran before, after, and, indeed, during its crossing of the nuclear threshold. This book attempts to fill that
gap, providing a midterm strategy for dealing with Iran that
neither begins nor ends at the point at which Tehran acquires
a nuclear weapon capability. It proposes an approach that neither acquiesces to a nuclear-armed Iran nor refuses to admit
the possibility—indeed, the likelihood—of this occurring.

A Military Perspective on Coalition
Challenges During Stability Operations
Russell W. Glenn
During stability operations, coalitions must incorporate
participation by government agencies other than the military,
the indigenous government, and its population more than is
expected during conventional combat operations. This book
investigates challenges confronting coalitions today and considers potential solutions that include questioning the conception of what constitutes a coalition in today’s world. Core
coalition objectives tend to be political rather than military
in character and include counterinsurgency, nation building,
developing government capacity, and providing humanitarian
assistance—activities often associated with stability operations.
Armed forces are not staffed or trained to meet the long-term
demands of many of these tasks. Recent contingencies have
also seen commercial enterprises, militias, intergovernmental
organizations, and nongovernmental organizations become
key participants in these undertakings. The result is coalitions
of a size seldom seen and with a number of affiliations rarely,
if ever, approached before the late 20th century.

Christopher Paul, Agnes Gereben
Schaefer, Colin P. Clarke
Violent drug-trafficking organizations (VDTOs) in Mexico
produce, transship, and deliver into the United States tens
of billions of dollars worth of narcotics annually, but their
activities are not limited to drug trafficking. VDTOs have also
engaged in human trafficking, weapon trafficking, kidnapping, money laundering, extortion, bribery, racketeering, and
assassinations. In an effort to clarify the scope and details
of the challenges posed by these organizations, the authors
assess the contemporary security situation in Mexico through
the lens of existing R AND research on related issues, including urban instability and unrest, historical insurgencies, and
defense-sector reform.

Asbestos
Bankruptcy
Trusts and Tort
Compensation
Lloyd Dixon, Geoffrey McGovern
Payments by asbestos bankruptcy
trusts have played an increasingly
important role in compensating
asbestos injuries and have become
a matter of contention between
plaintiff and defense attorneys. At
issue is how tort cases take into consideration compensation
paid by trusts and the evidence submitted in trust claim forms.
This volume examines how such evidence and compensation
are addressed by state laws and considered during court proceedings. The authors also examine how the establishment of
the trusts potentially affects plaintiff compensation from trusts
and the tort system combined, payments by defendants that
remain solvent, and the compensation available to future, as
compared to current, plaintiffs.
Earthquake Insurance and
Disaster Assistance
The Effect of Catastrophe Obligation
Guarantees on Federal Disaster-Assistance
Expenditures in California
Tom LaTourrette, James N. Dertouzos, Christina E. Steiner,
Noreen Clancy
The Catastrophe Obligation Guarantee Act, introduced
in Congress in 2009, would authorize the federal government
to provide committed loan guarantees to qualified state
catastrophe-insurance programs. Proponents argue that
lower-cost catastrophe insurance could reduce federal disasterassistance expenditures. This report estimates the law’s
potential effects in California.

Cold-Case Investigations
An Analysis of Current Practices and Factors
Associated with Successful Outcomes
Robert C. Davis, Carl Jensen, Karin E. Kitchens
Although the number of cold-case units and expenditures to
fund them are increasing, little is known about the return on
this investment. The authors discuss the status of cold-case
investigations in the United States and examine factors associated with successful cold-case investigations. Their analysis
reveals factors that predict whether a cold-case investigation
will be successful and shows how cooperation between police
and prosecutors can improve both the efficiency and effectiveness of cold-case investigations.

Lessons from the
Submarine Programs of
the United States, United
Kingdom, and Australia
John F. Schank, Frank W. Lacroix,
Robert E. Murphy, Mark V. Arena,
Gordon T. Lee
Large, complex submarine design
and construction programs
demand personnel with unique
skills and capabilities supplemented with practical experiences
in their areas of expertise. The governments of the United
States, the United Kingdom, and the Commonwealth of Australia asked the R AND Corporation to develop a set of lessons
learned from previous submarine programs that could help
inform future program managers. This volume presents an
overview of five submarine programs in the three countries—
the UK’s Astute program; the U.S. Navy’s Ohio, Seawolf, and
Virginia programs; and Australia’s Collins program—and
identifies lessons that apply to all of them.
Keeping a

Industry Aloft
Findings from an Analysis

John Birkler, Paul Bracken,

Soumen Saha, Shane Tierney
For at least two decades, policymakers have expressed concerns that
further consolidation could erode the competitive environment for military aircraft and degrade the industry’s abilities
to develop, manufacture, and support innovative designs.
This volume reviews a 2003 R AND evaluation of the risks
and costs of the United States having little or no competition among fixed-wing military aircraft companies; examines
changes in industrial-base structure and capabilities that have
taken hold since that analysis was performed; and assesses how
these and future changes will affect the industrial base.

This second volume examines six case studies of insurgencies
from around the world to identify the key factors necessary for
a successful transition. The authors review the causes of each
insurgency and the key players involved and examine what the
government did right—or wrong—to bring the insurgency to
an end and to transition to stability. In each case, there was
a need to understand the participants in the insurgency and
the grievances and needs of the local population; to balance
security needs with reforms in other areas; and to plan for the
disarmament, demobilization, and reintegration of militias
and government and insurgent forces.

Over the past decade, especially,
U.S. Marine Corps (USMC)
intelligence has had to tailor its
organization to meet the evolving
demands of the operational environment. This has resulted in
a variety of ad hoc arrangements, practices, and organizations.
This broad review of the organizational design of USMC
intelligence examines how to align it efficiently and effectively
with current and future missions and functions and includes
recommendations to help improve the “fit” of USMC intelligence organizations with their environmental context through
realignment or restructuring.

These essays capture this upheaval, but

have fallen short, and how we need to change yet more.”

“This book will make a significant contribution to our
understanding of the past ten years and inform decisions about

A New Approach for Assessing
the Needs of Service Members
and Their Families
New Tools and Metrics for
Evaluating Army Distributed
Learning
Laura L. Miller, Bernard D. Rostker, Rachel M. Burns,
Dionne Barnes-Proby, Sandraluz Lara-Cinisomo, Terry R. West
Susan G. Straus, Michael G. Shanley, Douglas Yeung, Jeff Rothenberg,
Elizabeth D. Steiner, Kristin J. Leuschner
The authors developed a new methodological framework for
assessing military personnel and military family needs that fills
a gap not currently being met. The framework places personnel
and spouse perceptions of problems and needs and the prioritization of those problems and needs at the center of the analysis. This monograph describes the development and testing of
a survey tool based on that framework that the Department of
Defense and local military commanders can use to gauge the
problems and problem-related needs of service members and
their families, how well those needs are being met, and the
barriers and bridges to accessing services. It discusses how this
approach differs from others, the challenges to implementing
such a survey, and the value of the survey results to different
types of military leaders and support service professionals. The
framework could be applied to other types of research questions, such as the problems, needs, and resources for military
personnel serving in war zones, and the content of the survey
could be modified to address other populations, such as
wounded service members. A sample survey is included as an
appendix.
The authors develop and test new tools and metrics to assess
distributed learning (DL), a key element of the Army’s training strategy, while documenting the impact of Army DL
courses at the program level. Results point to the need for
changes in policies and procedures to improve the effectiveness
of Army DL. These studies also demonstrate the feasibility
of evaluating DL within the Army and suggest that a more
comprehensive program of assessment, better supported by the
Army’s information systems, could provide major benefits to
the The Army DL Program.

Developing U.S. Army
Officers’ Capabilities for Joint,

M. Wade Markel, Henry A. Leonard, Charlotte Lynch, Christina Panis,
Peter Schirmer, Carra S. Sims
Based on interviews and focus groups, this monograph
identifies and describes the knowledge, skills, and abilities
that enable Army officers to succeed in joint, interagency,
intergovernmental, and multinational contexts. Researchers
identified the kinds of assignments that develop the needed
capabilities and used inventory modeling to assess the Army’s
ability to develop and maintain a cadre of properly
qualified officers.
Each year, more than 150,000 young men and women enlist
in the active component of the U.S. military. The authors estimate, for as many as 18 years following enlistment, the causal
effect of military service on labor market and educational
outcomes, finding that military enlistment increases earnings
in both the short and long term.

Central America
Kathryn Pitkin Derose, David E. Kanouse,
David P. Kennedy, Kavita Patel, Alice Taylor,
Kristin J. Leuschner, Homero Martinez
Although faith-based organizations (FBOs) have played an
important role in delivering health and social services in
developing countries, little research has been done on their
role in the prevention of and care for people with human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV), particularly in Latin America.
The authors describe FBO involvement in HIV/AIDS in three
Central American countries hard hit by this epidemic—Belize,
Guatemala, and Honduras—and discuss such issues as the
unwillingness of some FBOs to discuss condom use and their
lack of experience in evaluating the impact of programs.

In Afghanistan, local communities have played a critical role
in security, especially in rural areas. This analysis discusses the
viability of establishing local security forces in Afghanistan
and addresses concerns about the wisdom of such policies.
This volume describes the creation of developmentally appropriate criteria used to identify and screen Arabic-language
works for children that promote tolerance and critical thinking
and the characteristics of the materials that were found. The
authors present several examples of works that met the criteria,
discuss barriers that prevent the development and dissemination of more such works, and suggest ways to address and

RAND in Southeast Asia
A History of the Vietnam War Era

Mai Elliott
Foreword by James A. Thomson
“This is an excellent, well-written,
impressively researched book . . . [that]
should be attractive to advanced students
and scholars of the Vietnam War era.
Highly recommended.”
—Choice
“This book is an outstanding accomplishment. Elliott writes with
an intimate knowledge of both RAND and the war and her
extensive interviews provide a valuable window into the personal
goals, convictions and frustrations of the social scientists at the
heart of the story. Readers will encounter an intriguing and
little-known side of the Vietnam War here, and scholars seeking
to contribute to the growing historiography of the relationship
between American social science and the Cold War will find this
a most valuable resource.”

Haiti’s state institutions are riddled
with weaknesses in human resources,
organization, procedures, and policies. State-building should
be at the forefront of efforts to recover from the January 2010
earthquake. The authors propose strategies for Haitian statebuilding by identifying the main challenges to more capable
governance, evaluating existing plans for strengthening
government institutions and improving the delivery of public
services, and proposing a realistic and carefully limited set of
critical actions.

The U.S. Experience with

Insurance
A Retrospective
James M. Anderson, Paul Heaton,
Stephen J. Carroll
No-fault insurance regimes, a formerly
popular alternative to the tort compensation system for auto-accident victims,
have gradually lost support. The
authors show that, over time, premiums and claim costs have
grown larger in no-fault states than in other states, primarily
because of explosive medical cost increases.

Performance-based accountability
systems (PBASs) link incentives to
measured performance and, although often varying widely
across sectors, share three main components: goals, incentives,
and measures. The authors examine nine PBASs drawn from
five sectors: child care, education, health care, public health
emergency preparedness, and transportation. Their findings
demonstrate that, in the right circumstances, a PBAS can be
an effective strategy for improving service delivery.

On “Other War”
Sources of Success in
Counterinsurgency
Christopher Paul, Colin P. Clarke, Beth Grill
Although insurgency has been the most
prevalent form of armed conflict since
at least 1949 and the subject of countless historical and contemporary studies, to date, there has been a dearth of
systematic evidence supporting the counterinsurgency (COIN)
approaches, practices, and tenets that make for successful operations. Relying on a collection of the 30 most recent resolved
insurgencies, the authors review 20 distinct approaches to
COIN, testing each rigorously against the historical record to
provide valuable lessons for U.S. engagement in and support
for COIN operations.

How Insurgencies End
Ben Connable, Martin C. Libicki
R AND has been studying insurgencies
and counterinsurgency (COIN) strategies for more than five decades, but the
conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan have
increased interest in effective COIN
strategies among policymakers, military
strategists and soldiers, and the public. The authors of this volume tested
conventional wisdom about how insurgencies end against the
evidence from 89 insurgencies. They then compared a quantitative and qualitative analysis of 89 insurgency case studies
with lessons from insurgency and COIN literature. Crucially,
the authors warn that there are no COIN shortcuts.

Pacification in Algeria,

David Galula
Foreword by Bruce Hoffman
“Galula’s ideas have emerged as key
elements of American counterinsurgency
doctrine. His Counterinsurgency
Warfare: Theory and Practice was one of
the first texts used by Army officers in 2005
to come to grips with problems confronting
them in Iraq. Far more impressive and readable, but less well
known, is Galula’s Pacification in Algeria, written, at RAND’s
invitation, following his participation in a conference on
counterinsurgency in 1962 on similar problems confronting
the United States in Vietnam. . . . Pacification in Algeria
is an exciting story of the difficulties faced by a small-unit
commander striving to succeed in a nebulous counterinsurgency
environment. It is a story small-unit leaders in Iraq today will
find quite familiar.”
—Journal of Military History
“To understand the new American military strategy in Iraq
and Afghanistan you could download a copy of the Army’s

adopt MFA—and where they choose to use it.

Radicalization and Recruitment to Jihadist Terrorism in

Brian Michael Jenkins
Since September 11, 2001, so-called “homegrown terrorists,”

Sexual Orientation and U.S.
Military Personnel Policy
An Update of RAND’s 1993 Study
National Defense Research Institute
At the request of the Senate Armed
Services Committee and the Secretary of
Defense, R AND conducted a study on
sexual orientation and U.S. military policy
in order to provide information and analysis that might be considered in discussing the possible repeal
of the law known as Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell (DADT). The
study examined DADT implementation; U.S. public and military opinion about allowing gay men and lesbians to serve in
the military without restriction; and the scientific literature on
group cohesion, sexual orientation, and related health issues.
R AND researchers conducted focus groups with military
personnel and a survey of gay, lesbian, and bisexual military
personnel. R AND researchers also examined the comparable
experiences of other institutions, domestic agencies, and
foreign militaries, as well as how repeal of DADT might affect
unit cohesion and military readiness and effectiveness.

Effects on Deployability and Training
Thomas F. Lippiatt, J. Michael Polich
Reserve Component units typically experience a surge of personnel turbulence as they approach mobilization and deployment. Since the U.S. Army aims to maximize unit stability

over time), this volume assesses the causes of and possible
solutions to instability within reserve units.

The Rumsfeld Model for Secretary of Defense
Involvement
How Much Is Enough?
Andrew R. Hoehn, Albert A. Robbert, Margaret C. Harrell
Shaping the Defense Program, 1961–1969
During his second tenure as Secretary of Defense, Donald H.
Rumsfeld considerably revised the process for selecting
senior U.S. military officers for top-ranking positions. The
authors examine these changes, how the process evolved after
Rumsfeld left office, and key attributes officials should
consider as they decide how future selection and assignments
will be managed.

I Want You!
The Evolution of the All-Volunteer Force
Bernard D. Rostker
Foreword by former Secretary of Defense Melvin R. Laird
“Rostker, who has held numerous federal posts and is currently
a senior fellow at the RAND Corporation, is the ideal scholar
to have written this study, a massive and definitive history
of the all-volunteer military force in the U.S. from its genesis
in the late 1960s to early 2005. It is a unique contribution.
Rostker’s research is prodigious to say the least, relying on over
1,700 original documents, including congressional testimony,
analytical studies, interviews, and other archival sources—most
of which are included on an accompanying DVD.”

This work, originally published in 1959,
retains ample relevance today for its
discussion of the origins of air power, its
cornerstone position in the evolution of
Cold War–era nuclear strategy, and its
treatment of preventive and preemptive
attacks, deterrence, and the economics of
strategy.
