“Dans les affaires diplomatiques, il faut marcher doucement et avec réserve et ne rien faire de ce qui n’est pas contenu dans les instructions, parce qu’il est impossible à un agent isolé de pouvoir apprécier l’influence de ses opérations sur le système général. L’Europe forme un système, et tout ce qu’on fait dans un point rejaillit sur les autres, il faut donc du concert.” Napoléon (1804) It could be argued that Napoleon has provided the first known workable definition of the Comprehensive Approach (CA). Napoleon noted that when considering the strategic environment or “système”, one must not act hastily or without consideration of the consequences of such an act on the constituent parts. He deduced that any action must be coordinated and in concert. In today’s parlance, interrelated and interdependent constituent parts could include inter alia: political, diplomatic, security, economic, development, rule of law and human rights. From Napoleon’s principle, it is possible to develop a tentative working definition of the CA or in French “Approche Globale”: “L’Approche Globale consiste, dans une gestion de crise, à appliquer conjointement des méthodes d’analyse et de prise de décision pour faire partager l’appréhension de l’évolution de la situation par chaque partie prenante. Celle-ci en déduira les variations des limites de sa propre liberté d’action, afin de collaborer à l’harmonisation continue des effets de ses opérations et de celles des autres acteurs à travers l’ensemble du système du théâtre stratégique, pour atteindre l’état final recherché.” And in English: “A CA, during crisis management, is defined as the joint application of analysis and decision making methods. This builds common situational awareness for every stakeholder, who will be able to identify their own specific limitations and variable freedoms of action. This will facilitate the continuous harmonisation of their operations’ effects with those of other actors throughout the whole system of the strategic theatre, in order to achieve the end state.” 5 CAPABILITIES Deconflict, Coordinate, Cooperate and Synchronise Comprehensive Operations Planning By Lieutenant Colonel Dave Goulding and Lieutenant Colonel René Renucci, Concepts and Capability Directorate. planning is indispensible Lieutenant Colonel René Renucci (FR) and Lieutenant Colonel Dave Goulding (IE), Concepts and Capability Directorate. What makes the EU unique is its possibility to react to a complex, dynamic, interrelated crisis with a combined, tailored and inclusive response, using the whole spectrum of both military and civilian assets and capabilities. This reaction is the collective commitment to a crisis or event. It is comprehensive in nature and incorporates all Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) actions. It may extend from initiation to final conclusion, possibly over an extended period of time, and draws all capabilities and expenditure into a continuous commitment. “In preparing for battle I have always found that plans are useless, but planning is indispensible,” Dwight D. Eisenhower Comprehensive Planning contributes to the development and delivery of a coordinated and coherent response to a crisis on the basis of an allinclusive analysis of the situation, in particular where more than one EU instrument is engaged. It includes identification and consideration of interdependencies, priorities and sequence of activities and harnesses resources in an effective and efficient manner, through a coherent framework that permits review of progress to be made. This approach applies to all phases of the planning process for a crisis management operation
