Abstract
This research project will develop a new model and design a new scenario for
conducting a third iteration of the South Asian Stability Workshop. This project
will seek new game mechanisms that will allow for greater fidelity in depicting a
nuclear-tinged future crisis in South Asia with the potential to draw in China and
the United States. This project builds upon the foundations and feedback from
previous TTXs conducted by the principle investigator. These previous exercises
revealed several disconnects in each country’s strategic rationale; limitations on
their understandings of the intentions and capabilities of the other country; their
assumptions about escalation control; and, most importantly, their assumptions
and visualizations of the roles of international powers in South Asian crises. This
crisis simulation exercise model will seek to incorporate best practices for
conducting four-team war games and will incorporate regional force trajectories
over the next ten years, as well as projected geopolitical trends.
