   Is on war still relevant?

   • In conclusion it can be said that On War is still a very relevant source if one wants to understand the complex social phenomenon of war and armed conflict. On War is rich in ideas that are pertinent to contemporary armed conflict but, as Colin Gray rightly pointed out, it has to be read and re-read to grasp its full meaning.

   Is on war a relic of the past?

   • With the rise of intrastate conflicts, civil wars and, in particular, terrorism in the last two decades, a ‘new wars’ school of thought has dismissed On War as a relic from the past. According to this school violent conflicts emerge less between states; the lines between state and non-state actors are blurred.

   Does the enemy 'get a vote'?

   How do States approach conflict today?

   • The way states approach conflict today is in line with this thinking: the developed world is trying to minimize wars both in number and severity, by using international law to limit war’s legality, by using non-military means to achieve political goals whenever possible, and by attempting to humanize conflicts and reduce casualties.

   Is War a necessary evil?

   • Sun Tzu is right: war seems to be what humans do, a necessary evil that has persisted despite human progress in many areas. Yet Clausewitz gives insight into why this is the case: to borrow Aristotle’s idea, man is by nature a political animal (Aristotle, 1984), and political activity is how we ensure our survival.

   What did Sun Tzu say about understanding the enemy?

   • Indisputably as true today as in Sun Tzu’s time is the necessity for understanding the enemy - his plans, dispositions, strengths, and weaknesses. “Know your enemy and know yourself, and fight a hundred battles without danger,” Sun Tzu observed. “Know yourself but not your enemy, and win one battle but lose another.”

   Oct 4, 2010 · Yet Clausewitz was primarily concerned with the great armed clashes between states that were typical of European wars in the 19th and 20th centuries. So is Clausewitz still relevant in the 21st century? Or does our habitual deference to Clausewitz cloud our ability to deal with contemporary conflicts at a global level?

   Abstract: This article argues that Clausewitz’s writing on war nearly 200 years ago is still relevant for contemporary conflict resolution from at least three aspects: his idea that war is “the continuation of policy by other means”; secondly his analysis of the nature of war and the trinity theory; and finally his understanding of the ...
