Bridging the divide  :  an integrated model of national security education for a new era of international governance 

 - Thousand Oaks, CA :  Sage Publications,  March 2008 
<br/><br/> This article addresses emerging issues of the new administrative state, international governance, and the development of an institutional capacity for coordinating multiple layers of demand in a dynamic and uncertain global environment. The argument is made for a curricular redesign in the context of a transformative public administration and the development of a new model of integrated military education (inside-out-coherence) for resolving emergent problems of coordination, adaptation, and functional interdependence. The notion of inside-out-coherence is that soldiers (even though they are trained for warfare) should also be availed of critical political as well as administrative knowledge. The new military and public administrator will need to be functionally versatile, must become a master of many roles (technical, political, cultural), and must be able to innovate as well as adapt to the fluid nature of international politics. A new kind of learning is required, but how benign would it be?
