Teich, Benjamin | Houff, David M.
Maritime commerce is an essential component of the current globalized economy and defense of the maritime domain is critical for ensuring continued economic prosperity and national security for the world's maritime nations. As many states reduce their resource allocation for maritime security capabilities, a multi-lateral approach to maritime security must be adopted. The United States maritime forces Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower proposes a global maritime security cooperative to do just that. United States Joint Doctrine requires Geographic Combatant Commanders to develop a regional security cooperation plan but provides little guidance regarding the principles and procedures that comprise an effective security cooperation strategy. Developing the underlying principles that govern cooperative international security partnerships and creating the organizational structure and functional relationships required to manage a regional security partnership are essential elements in establishing an effective global maritime security environment.
