Are the Swedish Navy complying to its doctrine? : manoeuvre theory during naval operations in an international context (English)
Abstract [sv]

Denna uppsats har som syfte att undersöka huruvida det i Militärstrategisk doktrin respektive Doktrin för marina operationer beskrivna manövertänkandet tillämpas vid internationella insatser med fartygsförband. Bakgrunden till detta är att det sedan doktrinerna skrevs har genomförts sådana, vilket innebär ett underlag som inte fanns under framtagandet av doktrinerna.

Studien genomförs som en fallstudie av insatsen ME01 inom ramen för EUNAVFOR Operation Atalanta utanför Somalia mellan maj och september 2009. Data samlas in i huvudsak genom intervjuer med ett urval av deltagande officerare.

Resultaten av studien visar att inom förbandet ME01 förekom manövertänkande, men det kan inte konstateras vara som ett resultat av något medvetet val eller av att det var en internationell insats. Avseende hela operationen konstateras snarare en avsaknad av manövertänkande som huvudmetod, vilket framförallt hänförs till egenskaper som återfinns i multinationella operationer.

Abstract [en]

This essay aims to investigate whether the concept of manoeuvre theory, as described in the Swedish doctrine, is adopted by Swedish naval units during international naval operations. Before the development of Swedish doctrine in its current form, no Swedish naval units had been participating in international operations, henceforth the need for the essay.

The study was carried out as a case study of the operation ME01 within EUNAVFOR Operation Atalanta off Somalia between May and September 2009. Data are collected mainly through interviews with a selection of participating officers. The results of the study show that within the unit ME01, aspects of manoeuvre theory could be identified, but the cause of this could not be identified as neither the international context nor as a result of a deliberate choice. This also applies regarding the operation as such, where the absence of manoeuvre theory as a concept in use, mainly caused by the multinational context, is shown.
