Abstract:Incidents of far-right extremism in the German Kommando Spezialkräfte Heer (KSK) have captured international headlines for years. The public outcry in Germany and the demand for change offered an opportunity to restructure not only the KSK but all German Military Special Operations Forces (GERSOF). This article contends that a substantial overhaul is necessary due to the numerous challenges that GERSOF face, but that momentum was lost due to the relations between the German government and key stakeholders, including the media. Informed by the Actor-Network Theory, the article explores these intricate relations, illustrating why the government squandered the opportunities to strengthen GERSOF as an element of national security and to reaffirm its commitment to its allies.

Language:SlovenianTitle:Svetovni prvaki v usposabljanjuAbstract:Primeri skrajno desničarskega ekstremizma v nemškem poveljstvu specialnih sil kopenske vojske (Kommando Spezialkräfte Heer, KSK) se že več let uvrščajo na naslovnice mednarodnih medijev. Ogorčenje nemške javnosti in zahteva po spremembah sta ponudila priložnost za prestrukturiranje ne le KSK, temveč vseh nemških vojaških sil za specialno delovanje (GERSOF). Pričujoči prispevek zagovarja, da je celovita prenova potrebna zaradi številnih izzivov, s katerimi se spoprijemajo GERSOF, vendar je bil zagon izgubljen zaradi odnosov med nemško vlado in ključnimi deležniki, vključno z mediji. Prispevek na podlagi teorije akterjev in omrežij raziskuje te zapletene odnose in ponazarja, zakaj je vlada zapravila priložnosti za okrepitev GERSOF kot elementa nacionalne varnosti in za ponovno potrditev zavezanosti zaveznikom.Keywords:GERSOF, Kommando Spezialkräfte Heer, Kommando Spezialkräfte Marine, Natove sile za specialno delovanje.
