Cultural Intelligence for Winning the Peace

In this anthology, a score of experts in counterinsurgency warfare, cultural anthropology, and strategic communications look at ways in which the study of foreign cultures and cultural phenomena may be used by policymakers, peacekeepers, soldiers, intelligence officers, and diplomats. Exploring areas from HUMINT to information operations, this book is a modern approach to the ancient art of subduing the enemy without fighting – what Sun Tzu called “the acme of skill.”
