Pełny tekst źródłaThe Recruiter Assessment Battery (RAB) is a predictive test being developed by Navy Personnel Research Studies and Technology (NPRST) to aid in the selection of U.S. Navy recruiters. This thesis analyzes the predictive accuracy of the RAB. Data were gathered from Commander, Navy Recruiting Command (CNRC) and the Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) for a sample of recruiters on duty in 2003. Data on the recruiters' RAB score, monthly production, and Naval Recruiting District (NRD) characteristics were obtained from Commander, Navy Recruiting Command (CNRC). Demographic information on the recruiters was obtained from DMDC. Multivariate models were estimated to determine the effects of the RAB score on the average monthly production of recruiters. The results of the models showed that the RAB score is positively correlated with recruiter productivity. The models also indicated that neither NRD characteristics nor personal demographic characteristics affected the relationship between the RAB score and recruiter production. The results of the study suggest that the RAB can be used to predict recruiter productivity. Further research should be conducted on implementing the RAB in the recruiter selection process. Additionally, the relationship of RAB score to recruiter productivity and personal demographic characteristics should be investigated more extensively.

Pełny tekst źródłaThe purpose of this thesis is to firstly analyze the determinants on the survival of United States Marine Corps Officers, and secondly, to develop the methodology to optimize the accessions of prior and non-prior enlisted officers. Using data from the Marine Corps Officer Accession Career file (MCCOAC), the Cox Proportional Hazards Model is used to estimate the effects of officer characteristics on their survival as a commissioned officer in the USMC. A Markov model for career transition is combined with fiscal data to determine the optimum number of prior and non-prior enlisted officers under the constraints of force structure and budget. The findings indicate that prior enlisted officers have a better survival rate than their non-prior enlisted counterparts. Additionally, officers who are married, commissioned through MECEP, graduate in the top third of their TBS class, and are assigned to a combat support MOS have a better survival rate than officers who are unmarried, commissioned through USNA, graduate in the middle third of their TBS class, and are assigned to either combat or combat service support MOS. The findings also indicate that the optimum number of prior enlisted officer accessions may be considerably lower than recent trends and may differ across MOS. Based on the findings; it is recommended that prior enlisted officer accession figures be reviewed.

Pełny tekst źródłaENGLISH ABSTRACT: This report investigates and evaluates the attrition rate and retention strategy employed by the South African Navy. The report also identifies gaps and makes recommendations for improvements, namely to decelerate the attrition rate and maintain a sustainable human resource component readily available to fulfil the South African Navy’s core business. It evaluates retention policies and the associated reasons for the rate of attrition. It also evaluates the success of the strategy employed by the South African Navy to attain and retain the required skills in order to contribute to the South African Navy’s sustained capability to serve South Africa. The literature review discusses the theoretical basis of the retention strategies and factors influencing the attrition rate of the South African Navy, the Department of Defence, the United States Navy, the Swiss Army and the Asian region. This has been done in order to establish a trend and find working solutions that will provide the underpinning for the recommendations proposed to decelerate the attrition rate in the South African Navy. The methodology for this study entails the use of qualitative methods – a questionnaire in this case – to collect data to obtain information on the reasons for the attrition rate. The information will also be used to reflect on the experience of the identified set of personnel who has exited the South African Navy between 1 January 2007 and 30 June 2008. The exited personnel members of the South African Navy, who form the basis of the sample for the study, had to complete a structured questionnaire. The data collection method also helped to identify specific social behaviour patterns or attitudes among staff members. This information is useful to provide insight into the main reasons for the attrition rate experienced by the South African Navy. The findings indicate that the majority of members who resigned from the South African Navy did so for higher salaries. This further indicates that the South African Navy’s salaries are not sufficiently competitive to retain members because private-sector salaries are much higher. An overwhelming number also indicated that the morale in the South African Navy is not good. This shows that members’ morale, which is a priority area in most organisations, is not at a desired level. This certainly contributes to the rate of attrition in the South African Navy. The majority of members feel that they did not receive appropriate support to enable them to do their work in the South African Navy. This indicates that no individual support or support mechanisms are present in the South African Navy. This contributes to the individual not performing at levels that would benefit the South African Navy. The lack of support leads to unhappy employees, and this adds to the reasons why members choose to resign from the South African Navy. The majority of members feel the Divisional System does not work the way it is supposed to work. The relationship between the divisional officer or line manager and the member is important for the South African Navy because this relationship forms the backbone of an efficient and effective South African Navy. It would appear that this area requires urgent attention to ensure the South African Navy maintains its operational capability. Recommendations for improvements include a change in leadership culture. The South African Navy must note that retention strategies that focus on financial incentives for the target groups, although an effective short-term solution, must consider the following in order to help reduce the attrition rate: • A change in the leadership culture. • The establishment of an Employee Morale and Well-being Division. The study highlights the challenges posed by the retention strategies and provides detailed research on the reasons for the attrition rate. The South African Navy’s leadership will find it difficult to compete with the private sector. However, the research findings have led to the following recommendations to retain staff in the South African Navy: the improvement of the leadership culture, greater care, and well-being programmes that focus on the commitment of members of the South African Navy.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie verslag ondersoek en evalueer die natuurlike afnamekoers en retensiestrategie wat die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot volg. Die verslag doen ook aanbevelings ten opsigte van verbeterings, naamlik om die natuurlike afnamekoers te verlangsaam en ’n volhoubare menslike hulpbronkomponent in stand te hou wat geredelik beskikbaar is om in die behoeftes die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot se kernbesigheid te voorsien. Die verslag evalueer retensiebeleid en die verwante redes vir die natuurlike afnamekoers. Dit evalueer ook die sukses van die strategie wat die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot volg om die nodige vaardighede te vind en te behou om te kan bydra tot die Vloot se volgehoue vermoë om Suid-Afrika te dien. Die literatuuroorsig bespreek die teoretiese grondslag van die retensiestrategieë en faktore wat die natuurlike afnamekoers in die volgende beïnvloed: die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot, die VSA se vloot, die Switserse weermag en die Asiatiese streek. Dit word gedoen om ’n tendens te bepaal en werkbare oplossings te vind wat die onderbou van die aanbevelings kan vorm wat gedoen word om die natuurlike afnamekoers in die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot te verlangsaam. Die metodologie vir hierdie studie behels die gebruik van kwalitatiewe metodes – ’n vraelys in hierdie geval – om data in te samel en om inligting te bekom oor die redes vir die natuurlike afnamekoers. Die inligting word ook gebruik om te besin oor die ervaring van ’n geïdentifiseerde groep personeellede wat tussen 1 Januarie 2007 en 30 Junie 2008 die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot verlaat het. Die personeellede wat die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot verlaat het, vorm die grondslag van die steekproef vir hierdie studie. Hulle moes almal ’n gestruktureerde vraelys invul. Die data-insamelingsmetode het ook gehelp om spesifieke sosiale gedragspatrone of houdings by personeellede te identifiseer. Hierdie inligting is ook gebruik om insig te verkry in die vernaamste redes vir die natuurlike afnamekoers wat deur die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot ervaar word. Die bevindinge toon aan dat die meerderheid lede wat uit die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot bedank het dit vir hoër salarisse gedoen het. Dit toon ook aan dat die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot se salarisse nie mededingend genoeg is om lede te behou nie omdat salarisse in die private sektor heelwat hoër is. ’n Oorweldigende aantal mense het ook aangedui dat die moraal in die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot nie na wense is nie. Dit toon dat lede se moraal, wat in die meeste organisasies 'n prioriteit is, nie op ’n verlangde vlak is nie. Dit dra gewis by tot die natuurlike afnamekoers in die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot. Die meerderheid lede voel dat hulle nie toepaslike ondersteuning ontvang sodat hulle hul werk in die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot behoorlik kan doen nie. Dit dui daarop dat geen individuele ondersteuning of ondersteuningsmeganismes in die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot teenwoordig is nie. Dit dra daartoe by dat individue nie presteer op vlakke wat die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot tot voordeel strek nie. Die gebrek aan ondersteuning lei tot ongelukkige werknemers, en dit is een van die redes waarom lede uit die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot bedank. Die meerderheid lede voel dat die Afdelingstelsel nie werk soos dit veronderstel is om te doen nie. Die verhouding tussen die Afdelingsoffisier of lynbestuurder en die lid is belangrik vir die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot omdat hierdie verhouding die ruggraat van ’n doeltreffende en doelmatige Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot vorm. Dringende aandag moet hieraan geskenk word om te verseker dat die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot sy bedryfsbevoegdheid behou. Aanbevelings vir verbeterings sluit ’n verandering in die leierskapkultuur in. Die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot moet daarop let dat retensiestrategieë wat op finansiële aansporings vir teikengroepe gegrond is bloot ’n doeltreffende korttermynoplossing bied. Hulle moet egter ook die volgende in ag neem om die natuurlike afnamekoers te help verminder: • ’n Verandering in die leierskapkultuur. • Die vestiging van ’n afdeling vir werknemer-moraal en -welsyn. Die studie verken ook die uitdagings wat die retensiestrategieë bied en vors die redes vir die natuurlike afnamekoers deeglik na. Die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot se leierskap sal dit moeilik vind om in die private sektor mee te ding. Die navorsingsbevindinge lei egter tot die volgende aanbevelings om personeel in die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot te behou: die verbetering van die leierskapkultuur, groter sorg, en welstandprogramme wat op die toewyding van lede van die Suid-Afrikaanse Vloot gerig is.

Pełny tekst źródłaENGLISH ABSTRACT: With the shift to an all-volunteer force and the end of the Cold War, armed forces across the globe are finding it increasingly difficult to attract, recruit and retain the right quantity and quality of recruits in the ranks. Similarly, the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) has expressed difficulties with recruitment but more so with the ability to attract ‘high calibre’ recruits in order to staff a defence force that is disciplined and technologically advanced. Although this is a consequence of various economic, social and political factors, one of the greatest challenges facing recruiters is the changing work values and preferences of the new millennial generation. As the title of this thesis postulates, evidence from the West suggests a ‘clash’ in values between millennials, who are individualistic, protected, ambitious and self-centred, and the military, which requires conformity, obedience and structure. While there is a vast amount of literature regarding the all-volunteer force and youth values of military service in the West, there is no study of this kind in South Africa. In this study, I aim to fill this void by exploring young South Africans’ perceptions and experiences of military service. As there is no existing literature on the propensity to enlist in South Africa, focus groups and interviews were conducted with high school learners, Military Skills Development System (MSDS) members who have completed one year of military service and recruitment officers who come into contact with school-leavers from across South Africa. These discussions were framed around two broad questions, namely what are the work values of young South Africans and what factors attract young people to or deter them from the military job. The conclusion is reached that the SANDF is not an employer of choice because of various institutional and societal factors. The military job is largely unappealing to young South Africans, who are risk-averse, individualistic and wish to be in close proximity to their families. The culture of the military is also unattractive to the majority who are not receptive to authoritarian regimes that expect unquestioning obedience and discipline and emphasise hegemonic masculine ideals. Besides this, two societal forces have a significant impact on the ability of the ability of the SANDF to attract recruits. The decline in the prestige of the military job and the presence of an ever-growing civilmilitary gap indicate that youth are neither informed about the military nor see the military as a high status job in society. Consequently, the inability of the SANDF to meet recruitment targets can be detrimental to the ability of the SANDF to fulfil its mandate.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Sedert die verskuiwing na weermagte wat geheel en al uit vrywilligers bestaan en die einde van die Koue Oorlog vind gewapende magte wêreldwyd dit steeds moeiliker om voldoende rekrute van die regte kwaliteit te lok, te werf en te behou. Ook die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Weermag (SANW) ervaar probleme met werwing, maar veral met die vermoë om ‘hoëkaliber’-rekrute te lok na ’n weermag wat gedissiplineer en tegnologies gevorderd is. Hoewel dit die gevolg van verskeie ekonomiese, sosiale en politieke faktore is, is een van die grootste uitdagings vir werwingspersoneel die veranderende werkwaardes en werkvoorkeure van die nuwe milenniumgenerasie. Soos die titel dit stel, dui getuienis uit die Weste op ’n ‘waardekonflik’ tussen hierdie generasie, wat individualisties, beskut, ambisieus en selfgesentreerd is, en die militêr, wat konformiteit, gehoorsaamheid en struktuur vereis. Hoewel daar ’n magdom literatuur oor vrywilligersmagte en jeugwaardes van militêre diens in die Weste bestaan, is geen studie van hierdie aard nog in SuidAfrika onderneem nie. Met hierdie studie wil ek hierdie leemte vul deur jong Suid-Afrikaners se persepsies en ervarings van militêre diens te verken. Aangesien daar geen literatuur bestaan oor geneigdheid om by die weermag in Suid-Afrka aan te sluit nie, is fokusgroepe gehou en onderhoude gevoer met hoërskoolleerders, MSDS-lede wat hul eerste diensjaar voltooi het en werwingsoffisiere wat met landwyd met skoolverlaters in aanraking kom. Hierdie gesprekke is afgegrens deur twee breë vrae, naamlik wat die werkwaardes van jong Suid-Afrikaners is en watter faktore jong mense na of van die militêre werk lok of afstoot. Die gevolgtrekking is dat die SANW om verskeie institusionele en maatskaplike redes nie ’n voorkeurwerkgewer is nie. Jong Suid-Afrikaners, wat risikoweersinnig en individualisties is en naby hulle familie wil bly, vind ʼn militêre loopbaan breedweg onaantreklik. Die militêre kultuur spreek ook nie die meerderheid aan nie, wat nie ontvanklik is vir outoritêre regimes wat onverbiddelike gehoorsaamheid en dissipline eis en hegemoniese manlike ideale beklemtoon nie. Hierbenewens is daar twee samelewingsfaktore wat ʼn beduidende impak het op die SANW se vermoë om rekrute te werf. Die kwynende prestige van ʼn militêre loopbaan en die teenwoordigheid van ʼn steeds groeiende kloof tussen siviel en militêr dui daarop dat jongmense nóg oor die militêr ingelig is nóg dit as ’n werk met status in die samelewing beskou. Gevolglik kan die SANW se onvermoë om werwingsteikens te behaal sy vermoë om sy mandaat uit te voer nadelig beïnvloed.

D’autre part, la thèse analyse le développement de l’attention portée aux volontaires espagnols et son utilisation politique, en se penchant plus particulièrement sur les démarches ministérielles et sur le secteur de la population favorable aux Alliés avec liaisons avec le libéralisme et le réformisme dont le centre d’action était situé à Madrid et qui finit par former en 1918 le Patronato de Voluntarios Españoles (désigné ci-après sous le sigle PVE), une organisation crée par José Subirà Puig qui, malgré sa courte vie, tentera d’établir et d’hégémoniser un récit sur les volontaires en conflit avec le discours élaboré par les secteurs catalanistes favorables aux Alliés. Enfin, cette thèse de doctorat s’interroge aussi sur la construction et la survivance d’une mémoire sur ces combattants, ainsi que sur son utilisation, non exempte de vicissitudes, dans les tentatives de réécriture du passé de l’Espagne et de la Catalogne pendant la Première Guerre mondiale, de l’après-guerre immédiate à nos jours. Cette thèse vise ainsi à offrir une vision large qui aide à résoudre de nombreuses questions restées jusqu’ici sans réponse et à mieux comprendre la complexité du rapport entre le volontariat armé et la mobilisation politique et culturelle soutenue par certains groupes dans l’Espagne neutre de 1914-1918.
This doctoral thesis aims to delve into one of the most neglected aspects in the historiography of Spain’s relationship with the First World War, which is the participation of Spaniards as volunteers in the ranks of the French Foreign Legion. For this, the thesis is structured on the basis of two broad general areas. On the one hand, through a documentary compilation work that includes the incorporation for the first time of an important part of the official sources of the Legion in Aubagne, the thesis aims to advance scientifically in aspects such as the quantification of the Spanish combatants or the percentage of casualties, as well as other aspects that help to describe the profile of the combatants and can help to understand their trajectory, their experience and their motivations. On the other hand, the thesis analyzes the development of attention to Spanish volunteers and their political use, paying special attention to ministerial efforts and the alliadophile nucleus close to liberalism and reformism and with a center of action in Madrid that ended up forming in 1918 the Patronato de Voluntarios Españoles, an organization promoted by José Subirà Puig and that despite its short life undertook an attempt to establish and hegemonize a story about the volunteers in dispute with the discourse prepared from the Catalanist pro-allied sectors. Finally, this doctoral thesis also asks itself about the construction and survival of a memory about those combatants and their use, not without its vicissitudes, in the attempts to rewrite the past of Spain and Catalonia during the First World War from the immediate postwar period to present days. With all this, it is intended to offer a broad vision that helps to solve many questions so far pending answer and a better understanding of the complex relationship between armed volunteering and the political and cultural mobilization sustained by some groups in neutral Spain in 1914- 1918.

Le service militaire obligatoire repose sur une contradiction. En tant que mode privilégié de la participation du citoyen aux affaires de la cité, il est à la fois élément et garant de sa liberté politique. En tant qu'institution disciplinaire, il le soumet à un système coercitif et l'isole de la société civile. La nationalisation de la force armée par la conscription introduit donc une tension irréductible entre citoyenneté et discipline, et pose concrètement le problème de la liberté politique. Egalitaire dans son principe, le service militaire ne concerne pourtant que la frange masculine de la population, l'absence des femmes dans l'armée répondant à leur exclusion des droits civiques. L'universalité de l'obligation se trouve par ailleurs contrecarrée par les stratégies de certains groupes sociaux pour négocier des conditions favorables. Plutôt que d'opposer le modèle de conscription républicaine à la française au militarisme prussien, cet ouvrage s'attache à montrer comment la Prusse a répondu de manière dialectique à l'institution révolutionnaire de la violence de masse. La Révolution française et la Réforme prussienne sont ainsi appréhendées comme deux moments d'un processus intrinsèquement transnational. Cet ouvrage entend mettre à l'épreuve de l'Histoire le problème politique tel que l'ont formulé Rousseau et Kant, en s'appuyant sur des sources officielles, des autobiographies, lettres, chansons, conçues comme des articulations subjectives de la modernité politique.
