The idea for CAMOS arose in
September 2002, during a reunion of alumni from the Columbia University
Institute of War and Peace Studies Summer Workshop on Analysis of
Military Operations and Strategy (SWAMOS).
Instead of meeting informally, as they had done for several years,
participants decided to meet more formally and broaden the network to
include other scholars and practitioners, such as alumni of the Basin
Harbor workshops sponsored by the Philip Merrill Center
for Strategic Studies at Johns Hopkins University
To this end, a group of 60 SWAMOS
and Basin Harbor alumni and other scholars and practitioners submitted
a proposal to establish a group affiliated with the American Political
Science Association (APSA).
In October of 2002, our proposal was accepted. The first
CAMOS-sponsored panel, reception, and business meeting were held at
APSA 2003 in Philadelphia.
