This PRISM issue features a variety of security-related articles that focus on 1) the tension that exists in Southeast Asia between two competing principles -- national sovereignty and the Responsibility to Protect (R2P); 2) the widespread post-2009 backlash against nation-building as a core function of the US military; 3) the similarities and differences between the US' and Israel's approaches to dealing with violent extremist organizations; 4) why the US should help reform Myanmar's military; and 5) whether the US Department of Defense is getting good value for the money it spends on humanitarian operations. The text also includes a field-based analysis that compares the NATO campaign in Afghanistan with the Colombian government's efforts against the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC).
