Summary:

Examines ongoing challenges to interagency coordination for civilian security-related missions abroad, and approaches to improving current civilian national security system. Reviews brief history of interagency reform during the 1990s and 2000; summarizes Clinton, Bush, and Obama Administration measures and initiatives; and discusses key problems in context of current interagency structure. Provides short synopsis of reform proposals recommended or published by foreign policy and defense organizations and experts. Addresses questions related to necessity of interagency reform for missions abroad, determining high priority proposals, potential cost savings of interagency reform, and whether Congressional reform must accompany other national security measures.
