stories in one.<span style=""> </span>The
first exposes a new Pentagon effort to enlist the
best and the brightest in a struggle for hearts
and minds. <span style=""> </span>Facing
long wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the U.S.
military initiates ‘Human Terrain Systems’, a
controversial program that seeks to make cultural
awareness the centerpiece of the new
counterinsurgency strategy. <span style=""> </span>Designed to
embed social scientists with combat troops, the
program swiftly comes under attack as a misguided
and unethical effort to gather intelligence and
target enemies.<span style=""> </span>Gaining
rare access to wargames in the Mojave Desert and
training exercises at Quantico and Fort
Leavenworth, ‘Human Terrain’ takes the viewer into
the heart of the war machine and a shadowy
collaboration between American academics and the
military.</span></span></span></p>

brilliant young scholar who leaves the university
to join a Human Terrain team. <span style=""> </span>After working
as a humanitarian activist in the Western Sahara,
Balkans, East Timor and elsewhere, and winning a
Marshall Scholarship to study at Oxford, Michael
Bhatia returns to Brown University to take up a
visiting fellowship.<span style=""> </span>In the course of conducting
research on military cultural awareness, he is
recruited by the Human Terrain program and
eventually embeds with the 82nd Airborne in
eastern Afghanistan.<span style=""> </span>On the way to mediate an
intertribal dispute, Bhatia is killed when his
humvee hits a roadside bomb.</span></span></span></p>

academics go to war, and the personal tragically
merges with the political, raising new questions
about the ethics, effectiveness, and high costs of
counterinsurgency.</span></span></span></p>
