This paper identifies five effective ways for a democratic middle power such as Australia to conduct counterinsurgency: population focus, an indirect approach, pre-emption, information activities and the use of adaptive measures. According to the author, these provide a framework for the development of an appropriate counterinsurgency strategy for Australia's circumstances. He also presents eight policy recommendations to support the development of a strategic approach to Australia's involvement in counterinsurgency conflicts.
