Ecomics is a critical component of military operations and will continue to be so in the future. Understanding this is vital to successful military operations. The military requirement for understanding ecomics and its application in operations is outlined in both national strategy and doctrine. The military has means, motive, and opportunity for the application of ecomics in operations. Successful campaigns and achievement of the national strategic end state requires the integration of ecomics throughout all operations and across the levels of war. Military doctrine provides poor guidelines and limited reference for ecomic operations and concepts.

Commanders at all levels must understand basic ecomic theory and key concepts to effectively execute counterinsurgency and stability operations. The mograph recommends using Developmental Ecomics as the framework for the operationalization of ecomics by the military. Developmental Ecomics is a theory of ecomics that grew from the failures of classical ecomics to effectively explain development in third-world nations. This must be the framework the military uses when planning and designing campaigns for both counterinsurgency and stability operations. Ecomics is t one of several lines of operation, but the overarching framework for the design of counterinsurgency and stability operations. Viewing development as freedom, described by Amartya Sen provides an improved foundation for military operations and a more complete campaign framework.
