Whenever the nation contemplates making a major shift in its global defense posture, planned changes should be seriously and broadly debated, because these changes will shape and constrain US strategic options for some time. While the broad outlines for the ongoing shift in the US defense posture appear to be headed in the right direction, the changes have generally been made without much public or even internal governmental debate. Several important questions remain to be fully answered, and further changes will likely be required to address several existing or looming 21st century strategic challenges.

Alliances

The long-term challenges facing the United States and its allies will likely be far more formidable than those they confront today.  If the United States is to preserve favorable military balances in key regions around the globe, it will find itself increasingly dependent upon allies for support.  This may lead to a somewhat different alliance structure than currently exists.  However, it will almost certainly require a very different division of labor among the United States and its allies.  Restructuring alliance relationships to meet these requirements will take years, perhaps a decade or more, to accomplish.
