The development of a coherent and effective United States strategy to manage the global low intensity conflict threat is contingent on understanding this complex phenomenon. This, in turn, requires a comprehensive theory of low intensity conflict be crafted by security professionals and scholars.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA general consensus has emerged concerning the definition of low intensity conflict, but a \"level-of-analysis problem\" currently hinders further theory-building. Most American security professionals and policy makers have taken either a \"macro\" approach to low intensity conflict which skims key regional differences, or a country-specific \"micro\" perspective which ignores regional linkages.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA better approach is to divide the world into nine theaters of low intensity conflict, seven regional and two functional. This could contribute to the development of a more comprehensive theory of low intensity conflict as well as providing more immediate benefits such as a greater range of strategic options and organizational clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Progressive Management","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47149825949936,"sku":"2940153070278","price":1.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940153070278_p0.jpg?v=1764049567","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940153070278","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
