Adam Lockyer examines four types of maritime deterrence strategies: offensive sea control, defensive sea control, offensive sea denial, and defensive sea denial. These fleet operations showcase what crises a nation can plan to respond to, how it can intend to respond, and the likely success of these efforts. Lockyer conducts analysis of cases throughout history and also takes a deeper look at the US Maritime Strategy from the late Cold War in the Pacific, ultimately finding that the credibility of conventional maritime deterrence rests upon what a naval power can be seen to do rather than what it can do.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book will provide policymakers, naval officers, and scholars of international relations with insight into maritime deterrence for both current and future contests.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY PRESS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52405875933458,"sku":"9781647127244","price":69.19,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0508\/3093\/4173\/files\/9781647127244.jpg?v=1781906750","url":"https:\/\/bargainbooks.com.au\/products\/9781647127244","provider":"Bargain Books Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
