"THE SUPEREMPOWERMENT OF THE WAR FIGHTER"
http://www.nwc.navy.mil/newrulesets/TheAmericanWayofWar.htm
I think this is where it's "at" with Professor Barnett and his cronies. Shades of Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld! They've got all the answers (in their "humble" opinion). "The ultimate attribute of the emerging American Way of War is the superempowerment of the war fighter--whether on the ground, in the air, or at sea." The only things I can think of to say are all negative, so I'll leave them unsaid. Continuing on the path that has been chosen, we are in for a bad time - but so are they.

The effort to identify and characterize the American Way of War isin many waysan attempt to understand how U.S. warfare evolves once freed from the bilateral and all-consuming competition with the Soviet Union. In other words, left to our own devices to manage a complex and constantly changing global security environment, how does this country choose to wage war? . . .
