Fourth-generation wars and other myths / - Carlisle PA, USA: Strategic Studies Institute, US Army War College, 2005 - 21 p.

Provides a critique of the theory of fourth generation warfare (4GW) examining its faulty assumptions and the problems of its logic. Recommends that the idea of 4GW should be rejected and that the traditional concept of insurgency be retained suitably adapted to account for the greater mobility and access aforded by globalization.
