Abstract(s)
As dificuldades que a Organização do Tratado do Atlântico Norte enfrentou no Afeganistão,
relativamente à identificação e caraterização do problema operacional, levou a instituição a
repensar a forma de analisar e compreender o ambiente operacional. Desde então passou
a faze-lo através de uma visão abrangente e holística de todos os seus domínios, razão pelo
qual viria a desenvolver e implementar o conceito de Knowledge Development em apoio do
planeamento, execução e avaliação das operações. Este conceito foi apresentado em 2011, com
a finalidade de proporcionar uma visão para a sua futura integração, tanto a nível doutrinário,
como estrutural, daí resultando uma perceção, de algum modo ainda residual, de que o
Knowledge Development é uma função independente ou até substituta das Informações. Este
artigo pretende demonstrar que o Knowledge Development ao nível doutrinário veio reforçar
a abrangência e eficácia das Informações, e que em termos estruturais não foi implementado
de forma independente da Função Conjunta Informações. Conclui-se que o Knowledge
Development é, acima de tudo, um conceito que veio reforçar a capacidade das Informações
face às novas dinâmicas e complexidade do ambiente operacional.
The difficulties in identifying and characterising the operational problem in Afghanistan led the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to rethink its analysis and understanding of the operational environment through a comprehensive and holistic view of all its dimensions by developing and implementing a Knowledge Development concept to support the planning, execution, and assessment of operations. The doctrinal and structural outline of the concept was presented in 2011, and since then the Knowledge Development concept has been interpreted as a separate function or even a replacement for the role of Intelligence. This paper aims to demonstrate that, at the doctrinal level, Knowledge Development enhances the comprehensiveness and effectiveness of Intelligence, and that it is not structurally independent from the Intelligence Joint Function. We concluded that the Knowledge Development concept has enhanced NATO’s Intelligence capabilities in the face of the new dynamics and complexity of the operational environment.
