Spotlight Brief 3/21

A Note from the Editors

Spotlight Briefs provide a curated overview of issues relevant to Australian Landpower. They derive solely from available open source material. Importantly, inclusion of material in a Spotlight Brief does not imply or reflect Australian Army, Australian Defence Force or Australian Commonwealth Government policy. 

Additionally, I would like to take this opportunity to highlight another new publication. The AARC has worked with the RAND Corporation Australia to deliver a report which delves into our Army's ideas as expressed through its AARC publications. The RAND paper, Accelerating the Army's Contest of Ideas, applies data analytics to identify key topic areas, influences, authors and aspects of the logic that has supported Army thinking over the last twenty years.

The Australian Army Research Centre welcomes feedback on all publications. If you have a comment, or would like to suggest a pertinent article for the next issue, please contact the AARC Strategic Assessments team via our contact form (select Strategic Analysis contact type) .
