Globalization and Asymmetrical Warfare: Operation Athena
Abstract
Since 2003, Operation Athena represents Canada’s contribution to the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Afghanistan. This article explains the Canadian role as an international security provider in general and a closer look on the background, the rationale and the structure of Operation Athena - how it supports the Canadian priorities and objectives in Afghanistan toward 2011.
