Abstract
Towards Post Cold War conflicts, the English army became the heir of a strong strategic culture. Indeed, the geo-politic and military story of England has been made mainly by maritime army power, in order to avoid any insurrections from other countries. However, in today's absence of any direct threats towards England and in a world evolution of conflicts, it is important for England like other any European countries to develop alliances in order to guarantee a world security. Since the end of the Post War, the world has known new localized conflicts for a part, with the example of the "Balkanization" of the conflicts, and the apparition of new threats with the notion of terrorism (9/11). The last White Papers edited by the English Ministry of Defense dealt with Defense issues, and emphasized on the way that the English army must change its overall vision of its Defense Industrial Strategy showing their will to adapt their army in the new international strategic context.
