Soft cover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Book is in pristine shape. From the back cover: "Military leadership has both formal and informal dimensions. The formal leadership of any organization must always ensure that it minimizes the divergence between institutional aims and the actions of informal leaders. When this separation occurs, the result is sometimes mutiny. These incidents of insubordination and noncompliance represent a form of dialogue between military personnel and their leadership. The Insubordinate and the Noncompliant offers a perspective on the Canadian experience with military mutiny in the twentieth century in an effort to provide relevant lessons for today.".…

Couverture souple. Condition: Neuf. « Le leadership militaire possède deux dimensions : une dimension officielle et une dimension non officielle. Dans toute organisation, le leadership officiel doit sans cesse veiller à limiter l'écart entre les buts institutionnels et les actes des leaders non officiels. Si l'écart se creuse, on assiste parfois à une MUTINERIE! L'insubordination et la non conformité constituent une forme de dialogue entre les militaires et leurs leaders. Le présent recueil ouvre une fenêtre sur la mutinerie dans les forces armées canadiennes au vingtieme siècle, dans l'espoir d'offrir des lecons pertinentes pour le présent.».…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The Canadian Army currently espouses the ideas associated with Maneuver Warfare as doctrine. Unfortunately, the legacy of Canadian military in the twentieth century does not lend itself to the institutionalization of the mindset required to effect maneuver warfare, as delineated in the latest iteration of Canadian Army doctrine, contained in the capstone manual B-GL-300-000/FP-00 Canada's Army: We Stand on Guard for Thee (01 April 1998). This paper traces the factors that exemplify the manner in which the Canadian Army has operated during the last hundred years to demonstrate their effect on the operations of today and tomorrow. If the successes of our past are the foundation of our present operational and tactical methods we must understand these threads of continuity in order to either take advantage of or overcome our legacy in implementing doctrine. The bulk of primary source research was limited to that which could be examined via the Internet, information that had been reproduced on compact disc and that which could be obtained via interlibrary loan. These means produced sufficient primary material available to enable research into this topic. In addition to these primary sources there was a plethora of secondary source materials, by prominent military historians. Sources were evaluated for objectivity, comprehensiveness and authenticity. Canadian operational experience in peace and war over the last century has been characterized by: static warfare; attrition; lack of introspective thought; inadequate doctrine; centralized control and decentralized execution; rigid and uncompromising staff procedures as a result of a failure to develop and maintain an operationally capable general staff; and more recently, a neglect of warfighting due to the demands of peace support operations. The single thread of historical continuity throughout all experiences is a fixation with the limited objectives of the symmetrical battlefield. This more than any one thing is our leg.…
