Inhaltsangabe
The Western way of war has come full circle. After centuries of evolution towards increased totality and brutality, it has turned back once again to the ritualistic and restrained methods of primitive warfare. Largely, this has been due to an interaction between the perceived lack of utility in contemporary warfare, developing humanitarian public opinion, and increasing professionalism among militaries. The implications of this for the West are potentially dangerous, and include the possibility that it will be unprepared for a future foe whose defeat requires more unrestrained methods.

Wraps. Presumed first edition/first printing. viii, 69, [3] p. This is one of the Advancing Strategic Thought series. From an on-line posting: "The Western way of war has come full circle. After centuries, indeed millennia, of evolution toward increased totality and brutality, it has turned back once again to the ritualistic and restrained methods of primitive warfare. Dr. Zhivan Alach is currently employed by a New Zealand security agency. Previously, he was an analyst for the New Zealand Defence Force. A longer version of this monograph was published in Defence Studies, Vol.10, Issues 1 and 2, March 2010. Dr. Alach holds a Ph.D. in defence policy from the University of Auckland." Very good. No dust jacket. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Artikel-Nr. 70951
