Join SPP Faculty Affairs for a book colloquium with Alec Worsnop and a panel of scholars discussing his recent book, Rebels in the Field. The book challenges conventional views of insurgent warfare, arguing that leadership by small-unit commanders, or "military cadres," drives battlefield success. Case studies from Afghanistan, Iraq, and Vietnam will ground a conversation on the book’s implications for strategy, research, and policy. Learn more about the book.
Panelists:
- Alec Worsnop, Author
- Lena Andrews, SPP (Moderator)
- Kathleen Cunningham, GVPT
- Alexander Downes, George Washington University
- Dipali Mukhopadhyay, Johns Hopkins University
