POPULATION-CENTRIC WARFARE

Abstract

On November 16th, 2023, Dr. David Kilcullen presented Population-Centric Warfare for this year’s West Coast Security Conference. The presentation was followed by a question-and-answer period with questions from the audience and CASIS Vancouver executives. The key points discussed were the evolution of warfare with a focus on smaller, cheaper platforms, challenges in urban and coastal environments driven by electronic connectivity, and the crucial integration of internal security efforts with national security strategies to address ongoing global conflicts.   Received: 01-20-2024 Revised: 01-29-2024
