This article explores NATO and partner countries’ initiatives over the past three decades to enhance good governance, distinguishing five waves of focus: civil-military relations and democratic control of armed forces, defense institution building, security sector reform, building integrity and reducing corruption, and strengthening democratic resilience. The authors review the research and educational activities of the Partnership for Peace Consortium and other organizations in support of these initiatives, concluding with a proposal to establish a working group on democratic resilience within the Consortium.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">73</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Walter Christman</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tom Hazard</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The Coalition Information Systems and Operations Learning Network: An Emerging Concept for Multinational C4 Interoperability</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Information &amp; Security: An International Journal</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">advanced distributed learning</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">C4</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CJTF</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">coalition interoperability</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">command and control</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">e-learning</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PfP Consortium</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">security cooperation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">transfor¬mation</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2004</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2004</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">14</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">56-70</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The Coalition Information Systems and Operations (CISO) Learning Network is developing in collaboration with NATO and Partnership for Peace (PfP) nations an Internet-based online repository of e-Learning materials for enhanced coalition interoperability, in order to promote agility and flexibility, as well as increased knowledge and better understanding. Once fully implemented, it will promote net-centricity in coalition command and control through a global, Web-enabled environment that leverages existing and emerging technologies in a “smart-pull” fashion as part of the NATO transformation agenda.
Moving beyond issues of technical interoperability, the CISO Learning Network addresses what might be called “cognitive interoperability.” It responds to the need for current and future military missions to involve multi-national coalition forces that must be rapidly drawn together, flexibly led, responsively deployed and agile to address a wide variety of dynamically evolving tasks. In all of these missions there is a need for agility, responsiveness and effectiveness in the use of limited resources to achieve complex and multiple objectives. Effective integration of command, control, communications, and computers (C4) is a core competence and task among and between foreign militaries in addressing the challenges of both Asymmetric and Fourth Generation Warfare.
The CISO response is to bring together NATO and PfP Partner C4 educators, researchers, developers, and military professionals to jointly develop commonly agreed upon educational approaches for the C4 domain, leading to appropriate academic achievement and certification. CISO will focus on aiding the integration of technology development efforts, organizational concepts, and the development of Joint Doctrine. The net-centric approach enables discovery, exploration, testing, assessment, and demonstration of transformational approaches co-developed with coalition partners. The CISO Learning Network concept promotes cooperative development in multinational education and training as a vital part of the transformation experience and will serve as an enabler for better understanding by Joint Commanders on the configuration, deployment and employment of C4 Systems.

This multinational effort has since expanded to include contributions and participants from many other countries. To this end, a Joint Planning Document (JPD) was developed and published to implement the Swiss – U.S. MoU, a free and open-source Learning Management System (LMS) was developed and continues to be refined, numerous Cooperative Development Teams (CDTs) have been trained, and many courses have been developed and converted to internet-interactive courseware. Many of these courses are used in support of, and to train multinational military audiences in preparation for exercises and real-world events. The successes of the Swiss – U.S. MoU efforts are well documented, and the demand for the quality products and services provided by the CDTs have rapidly grown beyond PfP to NATO and others. This article underlines many of the accomplishments resulting from the ADL vision.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Petar Mollov</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Participation in the Consortium of Defense Academies and Security Studies Institutes and Advanced Information Technologies</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Information &amp; Security: An International Journal</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Advanced Information Technology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">military education.</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Partnership for Peace</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PfP Consortium</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2000</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2000</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">115-124</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The participation in the Consortium of Defense Academies and Security Studies Institutes creates an opportunity for more effective implementation of advanced information technologies in educational and research processes. Knowledge of the purpose, the goals and the organization of the Consortium allows governmental and non-governmental, military and civil organizations, and individuals, working in the sphere of security and defense, to take active and productive part in the “Partnership for Peace” initiative. This article presents the experience of “Rakovski” Defense College, Sofia, Bulgaria, as member of the Consortium.
