Teoretični Vidiki Odnosa Med Strategijo in Obrambnim Planiranjem Na Varnostno- Obrambnem in Vojaškem Področju

Abstract

Poznavanje in razumevanje teoretičnih značilnosti strategije in obrambnega planiranja je nujen predpogoj za premišljeno obvladovanje kompleksnega procesa uresničevanja političnih ciljev države na varnostno-obrambnem in vojaškem področju ter oblikovanje skladnega načrta (strategije ali obrambnega plana) za premostitev vrzeli med aktualno realnostjo in želeno prihodnostjo. Zato strategijo in obrambno planiranje upravičeno uvrščamo med najpomembnejše in hkrati tudi najzahtevnejše aktivnosti vsake države. Izvajanje strategije in obrambnega planiranja sta neločljivo povezana procesa, nujna za prihodnjo nacionalno varnost ter zagotavljanje obrambne sposobnosti države za soočenje z najbolj verjetnimi nevarnostmi prihodnosti. Naložba države v razvijanje strateške misli ter planskega znanja in veščin ne bi smela biti predmet kalkulacije vloženih sredstev, ampak predmet dolgoročne investicije v razvijanje miselnih procesov, zamisli o prihodnjih vojaških ciljih, konceptih bojevanja in prihodnjih opcijah oboroženih sil. Zavedanje političnih odločevalcev o pomenu dolgoročnega, skladnega in kontinuiranega razvoja obrambne sposobnosti države ne bi smelo biti vprašanje, temveč dejstvo, glede na to, da varnosti ni mogoče dobiti neposredno. To pomeni, da se mora državno vodstvo spoprijeti s paradoksom priprave na vojno tudi v miru, če želi zagotavljati državljanom pričakovano visoko stopnjo nacionalne varnosti in ohraniti mir. Knowledge and understanding of the theoretical characteristics of strategy and defence planning are a prerequisite for sound management of the complex process of implementing national political goals of the state in security, defence and military fields and of developing a coherent plan (strategy or defence plan) to bridge the gap between the current reality and the desired future. Therefore, strategy and defence planning are rightly considered to be the most important and the most demanding activities in each country. The implementation of the strategy and defence planning are inextricably linked processes indispensable for future national security and ensuring the defence capability of a country to deal with the most likely future threats. National investments in the development of strategic thinking and planning skills and knowledge should not be subject to calculation of invested funds, but subject to long-term investment in the development of thought processes, ideas about the future of military objectives, concepts of warfare and future options of the armed forces. The awareness of decision-makers on the importance of the long-term, consistent and continuous development of the defence capacity of a country should not be an issue, but a fact, since security cannot be obtained directly. This means that the state leadership should deal with the paradox of preparing for war in peace, if it is to provide citizens with a high level of national security and preserve peace.

The Process of Devising the Military Strategy of the Republic of Slovenia

“…The strategy is the most important military document, since it defines why we have a military instrument of power, what goals it wants to achieve, and in what way. An important role in the formation of strategies is played by the process of creating, designing and writing them, which their content, feasibility, effectiveness and efficiency largely depend upon (Žabkar, 2003;Vuk, 2016;Furlan, 2020).…”
