The Australian Army Working Paper #140: The Future Of War Debate In Australia: Why Has There Not Been One? Has The Need For One Now Arrived? (2012) By Albert Palazzo
This paper explores the reasons for the lack of debate within the Australian Army on the future character of war. In doing so it will summarise the scope of the US debate in order to contrast it with the absence of a robust and open deliberation of this subject within this country. It will speculate on what cultural, bureaucratic and operational factors inhibit debate by the members of the Australian Army, and suggest how these impediments might be overcome. Lastly, this paper will highlight why such a debate is urgently needed by the Australian Army as its members adjust to a post-Afghanistan role, while facing emerging challenges to the nation’s strategic and operational environments
