Example text
It was clear during the Balkans crisis that security involved much more than a use of force by the military to create a safe and secure environment, and that an adequate response to the crisis “exceeds the coping capacity of any single agent or institution” (Rietjens and Bollen 2008). The notion of “civil-military interaction” (or “cooperation”) was therefore re-born in Europe during the Balkans crisis, and it was here in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina that the importance of a civilian role, in combination with the military, once again came to the fore (Pugh 2000).
Reducing military knowledge and skills in civil-military interaction does not reduce the need for this knowledge or for better practices. 5 For example, in 2007 Norwegian CIMIC was criticized for participating in the construction of a hospital in the Norwegian PRT’s area of responsibility, as that hospital did not meet local needs or take into account local capabilities (Gompelman 2011). Norwegian CIMIC, however, had never been a part of the PRT at that time (CIMIC was introduced to the PRT in 2011).
In general, respondents located in Norway (working in offices primarily in Oslo) tended to reflect more so the principled rhetoric of the institution or organization that they represented, whether civilian or military, rather than reflecting the challenges on the ground for the military including CIMIC and also for the myriad of civilian roles. In other words, little of what Norwegian governmental or NGO interviewees reported reflected attempts to address how Introduction 23 interaction actually took place and why, but was fixated on political principles of the respective organization.
