Abstract

This research paper examines the nature of post-conflict operations at the operational level of war. The central thesis of the paper is that post-conflict operations are a critical phase of a conflict, are unique and separate from other seemingly similar applications of military force, and the tasks of the commander are not addressed in a clear and integrated manner in current doctrine.
