osalema! Täpsem ajakava:5th March11:00-13:00 room T-307Comprehensive
Operation Planning Procedure in NATO - an insight into the planning tool of
NATO for complex missions. NATO has the capability to deploy troops into a
crisis mission on short notice (up to 30.000 personnel within few weeks
worldwide). The big challenge of this capability is the need to foresee a
crisis, synchronize political and military decision making to deploy, and
develop a comprehensive plan for an agreed mission. Due to the fact that
modern conflicts in most cases are not conventional wars, but wars within a
civil-military environment with so called asymmetric aspects, NATO needs to
plan with a comprehensive approach. E.g. political, military, economic,
social, information, and infrastructure aspects have to be incorporated in
the planning as well as the synchronization with other GO and NGO
agencies.The course will explain about the steps of the Comprehensive
Operation Planning Procedure of NATO and will give the students the
opportunity to develop an own small plan in work groups.The results of the
work groups can be discussed in follow up session Secnario
Technique.14:00-16:00 room T-307Scenario Technique, Modeling and Simulation
in Political Science and Political CounselingScenarios are a valuable tool
in decision support and counseling strategic policy. The students will be
introduced in the generic steps of scenario technique and are tasked to
develop own scenarios for a topic of own choice. For those, who took part
in the COPD session, there is the opportunity to present their operation
plans and develop scenarios for some details of the plan.6th
March14:00-16:00 Room:S-235Human Factors in the Security Policy domain –
the logic of failure in decision-makingThere are a lot of different
theories in political science to explain decision-making and policy making.
Some concentrate on the system level (macro theories), others are more
concerned with the actor level, e.g. game theory, or the processes, e.g.
policy cycle. However, the insights of psychological decision-making
theories are often neglected in the discourse of political science. This is
surprising, since there are valuable insights of cognitive and social
psychology to decision making. In the interdisciplinary approach of human
factors - an approached rooted in the intersection of cognitive psychology,
organizational psychology, administration science and engineering –
decision making is seen as a triangle of human, organization, and
technology.Due to the fact that modern political decision making is highly
complex and supported by a lot of decision support tools and organizational
processes, the human factors approach is one fruitful approach to
understand how actors solve complex problem in a risky environment like
security policy. Students will be presented with a empirical analysis tool
of decision making and will develop by discussion an analysis of decision
making.Professor Markus BresinskyI graduated from University of Muenster
Westphalia in 1998 with a degree in Political Science and earned my Ph.D.
in the same subject. My research topics are decision-making processes in
crisis and conflict situations. I have been an associated research fellow
at the Social Science Center Berlin. In 2003 I joined a defense and
security consulting company and worked there as program manager. I was
assigned to work as adviser for German federal ministries in security
studies and managed a team of a half dozen interdisciplinary specialists in
field missions, e.g. Afghanistan. In 2008 the GermanChancellery invited me
to join the six month fulltime study program “Security Policy” of the
Federal College for Security Studies Berlin. In 2010 I became Professor of
International Politics and Social Science at Regensburg University of
Applied Science and study adviser of the International Relations and
Management BA program.
