Description
Foreword by Dr. Sebastian L. Gorka: "With this latest book, Dr. Moore has delved into the highly relevant arena of irregular warfare (IW) and given us the most up-to-date and comprehensive analysis and critique of the Thai way of counterinsurgency (COIN) available so far. Again, he does so not on the basis of exposition extrapolated from secondary references, but utilizing primary sources, extensive fieldwork, and interviews with the commanders and decision makers involved in fighting the communist and Islamist threats to Thailand."
This book describes Thai counterinsurgency (COIN) strategies, operations, and tactics for three wars ranging from 1965-present. Some of its highlights:
- Provides an insider's view of 50 years of Thai national security and Irregular Warfare (IW) decision-making in a way that no book has previously done
- Profiles the war against communist insurgents (1965-85); southern separatists (1980-1998); and southern separatists/Islamist jihadists (2004-present/2014)
- Discuses major Thai defense and political personalities and the impact of their leadership
- Contains lessons RE: strategizing and executing IW/COIN, including successes and failures
- Covers military, political, and economic operations in detail
- Based on IW monitoring and operations planning model devised by the author
- Especially relevant for understanding Thailand, SoutheastAsia, and China
