Synopsis

Stability operations have played a significant role throughout the history of United States foreign policy. By their nature, these operations have a strong economic context. This thesis provides a methodology for evaluating current institutional structures and economic doctrines being forged among various government agencies. It then uses that methodology to uncover gaps and overlaps within current institutional structures that will spell difficulty in the execution of future stability operations. The initial recommendation is to strengthen the mechanisms for interagency unity of command within the context of stability operations. Next are recommendations to improve both civilian agency understanding of military operations as well as military capacity to perform economic development. Following improved capacity is a call for increased funding flexibility from Congress and increased economic intelligence sharing among the government agencies. The final recommendation is for an interagency economic training and doctrine center that will establish a common foundation for all agencies participating in economic development.
