Ink Spots is a blog dedicated to the discussion of security issues across the spectrum of conflict and around the world. Our contributors are security professionals with interests and expertise ranging from counterinsurgency, stability operations, and post-conflict environments to national security strategy, security cooperation, and materiel acquisition. We hope this site will be a forum for discussion on both the issues of the day and broader, long-term developments in the security sphere.

Two more Kilcullen books forthcoming
Mike Innes at CTLab tells us that Dave Kilcullen will have a new book coming out with Hurst (which published The Accidental Guerilla in the UK) in each of the next two years:
In typical Kilcullen fashion, he shall take credit for the nouns of competitive control, counterinsurgency, peacekeeping, counterterrorism, counternarcotics and stabilization as well as the concepts of non-competetitiveness, insurgency, war, terrorism, narcotics and destabilization.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, he's a genius in his own mind.
