- Military readiness: debates and definitionsPublication . Lima, Leonardo da Silva; Migon, Eduardo Xavier Ferreira GlaserThis article provides a literature review on the concept of “readiness,” examining its definition and connections to other defence-related themes. It identifies key issues and proposes an operational framework for readiness. A systematic bibliographic review was conducted using a qualitative and exploratory research approach. The main finding is a conceptual definition of readiness: the state in which a military force maintains all required capabilities to deploy within a specified timeframe, execute its designated activities and tasks and accomplish assigned missions using its own organic resources. Readiness is conceptualized here as a dynamic state, a temporary condition characterized by an unstable equilibrium that requires ongoing resource allocation to prevent degradation. The article is organized into the following sections: an introduction; methodology; theoretical and conceptual framework; a review of existing readiness concepts; and a results section, in which the proposed concept of readiness is detailed, along with its typologies, measurement approaches, and associated trade-offs. The article concludes with recommendations for further research.
