Risk Management In The Food Service Operation by Prof. Ing. Aleš Komár, CSc., Ing. Boris Šroll, Ph.D. The aim of this work was to make an analysis of current state of catering services in the forces, to define risks of possible harms, damages, losses, or another prospective disasters, in order to propose a systematic approach to the risk management. Identified risks are being completely analysed. Our team drafted a risks catalogue to make their identification easier. Among others, upon this analysis, we compiled the chart of risks in catering process within the section of the ministry of defence of the czech republic. A user manual for monitoring and risk control was created, so that we can adopt suitable procurement measures for avoiding or minimizing risks, their occurrences, eventually lowering unwanted results generated by the above mentioned analysed risks.

[VR No 2/2010] BOOK REVIEW General Podhajský: Cruel History of the Romanticized Period of Pre-war Czech Army Build-up. It is a review of the book by Col. Ing. Josef Fučík (ret.), the former member of advisory board to this magazine. Pre-war Czechoslovakia was a parliamentary republic, typical for its instability. In 1918-1938 a total of 18 governmental administrations superseded, there were 11 defence ministers. Sometimes this position was hold by the prime minister. The same was with the position of Chief of the Main Staff of Czech forces. In 1919-1939 five generals were replaced, two French and three Czechoslovak. One of them was Alois Vácslav Podhajský, who held this position only for a short time, from September 1 to October 14, 1926. As an “old Austrian soldier”, he went through many nuisances and sorrows both in pre-war army and namely after World War II. [VR No 2/2010] PERSONAL DATA Major General (ret.)

[VR No 2/2010] VOJENSKÉ ROZHLEDY 3/2010, Czech Military Review [VR No 3/2010] English Annotation Alliance’s New Strategic Concept (Discussion Continues) by PhDr. Antonín Rašek. The NATO’s New Strategic Concept is only starting point to open discussion on a wide range of security problems. At the beginning there is a description of Czech home politics, attitudes of Czech political parties toward NATO alliance. The author explores the history of NATO’s identity crisis. In recent years, different security optics of the members splintered NATO. The US wants an expeditionary alliance with a global reach, the Western Europeans hold to a vision of a regional club of liberal democracies, the Central Europeans have a wish so that Washington would stand by them when they will find themselves pressured by Russia. NATO is divided on how to reform its decision-making processes and how to fund and resource its home and away missions. In Afghanistan, the Alliance faces the most difficult operational challenge to date, with a real possibility of strategic failure. The overarching problem is how to define the core business of NATO: cyber defence, energy security, WMD proliferation, stability and reconstruction missions, out-of-area missions, territorial security, enlargement, partnership-building. The discussion over the New Strategic Concept needs to reorder the question how to define NATO’s appropriate roles and go from there. [VR No 3/2010] The Current Reality of Nuclear Threat by Mgr. Jan Ludvík This article addresses vital issues of possible threat of nuclear weapons in contemporary world. First, the general nuclear order—particularly the NPT regime—is briefly examined. Analysis proceeds to a critical exploration of the prospective use of nuclear weapons by small nuclear states and the so-called rogue states. Some attention is also paid to the conflict between India and Pakistan, since these two states are often considered as the most dangerous from perspective of possible use of nuclear weapons. The author considers the threat of nuclear war between great powers and then the threat of nuclear terrorism. His analysis suggests that deterrence between great powers is reliably working. The threat from rogue states is limited by technological difficulties in process of development and production of nuclear weapons and limits of small nuclear arsenals. Even though threat of nuclear terrorism should not be underestimated, this paper argues that technical obstacles and availability of other comparatively cheap methods effectively reduce the terrorists’ desire to acquire nuclear weapons.
