Military intervention alone cannot resolve an international crisis, revive a state, or enable it to survive. It is now essential to combine the action of numerous parties: civil, institutional, and private; national and international, in all the fields of responsibility of the defective state. This new conception of crisis resolution has been called the “global approach.” Being aware of its failings in this respect, France decided in 2009 to provide itself with a new instrument for its interdepartmental policy for civil and military management of external crises. That innovation is a “task force” at the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs. This article traces the process that gave rise to the body and attempts to pin down what is at stake for the military and for the civil service.
