Redefining Land Power For The 21st Century (1998) By William T. Johnsen
Parochial partisanship and a lack of clear understanding of the individual components of military power or of their collective interrelationships have spawned debates over the future force structures of the U.S. Armed Forces. No official definition or general articulation of land power currently exists, but if national leaders are to have a fuller understanding of land power, its central role in the growing interdependence of military power, or the policy options that land power's versatility brings to security policy planning and execution, such explanations are imperative. Therefore, the author offers a definition of land power to meet the demands of the 21st century. He also places land power within the overarching context of total military power and highlights the growing interdependence among the components of national power, the strategic and operational versatility it offers policymakers, and its interrelationships with air and sea power.
