3 Day Forum
Adelaide, South Australia
Australia
1 - 3 October 2003
 Welcome to
Exploring Asymmetric Warfare: a new approach to analysing security threats and
responses. In this forum you will come to understand more properly the new security
environment Australia faces in East Asia.
This forum will provide a broad-based insight into the military and non-military
components of Australia's new strategic landscape looking at how the weak attempt
to assert their national or organisational will against the strong through the
possession of weapons of mass destruction; the conduct of terrorist operations;
and eyeball-to-eyeball diplomatic standoffs.
It will also give an insight into how Australia expects to respond to these
new and diverse threats to national and allied interests. For instance, does Australia
have any asymmetric advantages itself? Can it respond effectively to asymmetric
incidents whenever and wherever they occur? Are there distinct limits to Australia's
ability to respond to asymmetric threats and incidents and if so, what might they
be?
Join us in Adelaide from October 1 to 3 to explore a new approach to analysing
security threats and responses.
