Grand strategy as joined-up thinking

Criticism of Spain's campaign decisions leads to a plain-language definition of grand strategy as 'joined-up thinking'.

Notes

Grand strategy receives a plain definition here: 'joined-up thinking'. Spain's conduct in the campaign is criticised for lacking it. The judgment concerns how the campaign is being directed as a whole, rather than the outcome of an individual battle.
