Dr. Luis Bitencourt lectured via VTC on “Challenges for Defense Governance in a Complex and Rapidly Changing World”
From Perry Center | by Raul Neine | 31 Oct 2016

On October 10, Dr. Luis Bitencourt lectured via VTC on “Challenges for Defense Governance in a Complex and Rapidly Changing World” to approximately 25 students of the Peruvian Navy’s CEDEYAC (Curso de Dirección Estratégica para la Defensa y Administracián de Crisis) course. Dr. Bitencourt analyzed how the new global challenges — imposed by the changing paradigms after the end of the Cold War and the appearance of new threats — are increasingly demanding adjustments in the States’ traditional strategic planning and defense posture. Moreover, Dr. Bitencourt explained the efforts to help States and their respective defense establishments to improve their strategic planning by adopting new methodologies and strategic planning tools. The lecture was followed by a lively debate that demonstrated the relevance of the topic. Among the questions was one that is becoming conspicuous in every discussion of this topic: “Is the military becoming obsolete?”

El 10 de octubre, Dr. Luis Bitencourt habló vía video conferencia, sobre “Desafíos para la Gobernación de Defensa en un Mundo Complejo y en Rápido Cambio” con aproximadamente 25 estudiantes de CEDEYAC (Curso de Dirección Estratégica para la Defensa y Administración de Crisis) de la Marina de Guerra del Perú. Dr. Bitencourt analizó como los nuevos desafíos globales – impuestos por el cambio de paradigmas del pós-guerra fría y el aparecimiento de nuevas amenazas – están ajustando cada vez más a los modelos tradicionales de planeamiento estratégico del Estado. Sin embargo, el Dr. Bitencourt refirió a la búsqueda y desarrollo de metodologías analíticas y herramientas analíticas capaces de ayudar a los Estados y sus establecimientos de defensa a mejorar su planeamiento estratégico. Siguió a la ponencia un animado debate que ha demostrado la relevancia del tema. Entre las preguntas, surgió también la que está se tornando común en todas las discusiones sobre este tema: “Están los militares quedándose obsoletos?”
