"A remarkable work that challenges the received wisdom of Clausewitz's On War . . . [a] paradigm as to how to wage combat in our modern global environment." —John A. English, author of Monty and the Canadian Army War is changing. Unlike when modern military doctrine was forged, the United States no longer mobilizes massive land forces for direct political gain. Instead, the US fights small, overseas wars by global mandate to overthrow dictators, destroy terrorist groups, and broker regional peace. These conflicts hardly resemble the total wars fought and expected by foundational military theorists such as Carl von Clausewitz, yet their paradigms are ingrained in modern thinking. The twenty-first-century's new geopolitical situation demands new principles for warfare—deemphasizing decisive land victory in favor of airpower, intelligence systems, and indigenous ground forces. In Thoughts on War, Phillip S. Meilinger confronts the shortcomings of US military dogma in search of a new strategic doctrine. Inter-service rivalries and conventional theories failed the US in lengthy Korea, Vietnam, and Middle East conflicts. Jettisoning traditional perspectives and their focus on decisive battles, Meilinger revisits historical campaigns looking for answers to more persistent challenges—how to coordinate forces, manipulate time, and fight on two fronts. This provocative collection of new and expanded essays offers a fresh, if controversial, perspective on time-honored military values, one which encourages a critical revision of US military strategy. "Meilinger presents a new strategic and operational paradigm for how to fight and win tomorrow's wars with reduced risk and cost. This book will appeal not only to military professionals, but to scholars and civilian policymakers as well." —Colonel John Andreas Olsen, Royal Norwegian Air Force, author of Airpower Pioneers

"Gudrun Persson introduces readers to the evolution of Russian military strategic thought from the Crimean War (1853-56) to the present day. The book surveys the pivotal strategic thinkers from Dmitrii Miliutin, Aleksandr Svechin and Andrei Snesarev to Makhmut Gareev, Andrei Kokoshin, and Valerii Gerasimov. Russian military thought is understudied in the West, but it is critical to fill this gap in order to avoid strategic surprise. Furthermore, Persson shows that military strategic thought is closely linked to Russia's existence as a state and explains patterns of Russian confrontation. Strategy in Russia encompasses the broader context of foreign and domestic policy as well as the military's ties to the country's leadership. Persson sheds light on Russia's self-image and national identity, which in turn has fundamental consequences for Russia and its neighbors. The book helps readers understand the mindset of the current Russian leadership and the constraints that shape Russia's future possibilities"--

Excerpt from Thoughts on War and Peace: An Inquiry Into the Conceptions Prevailing in Foreign Politics Public attention in the last few years has been pointedly drawn to the creation of a League of Nations. However attractive the setting up of an international body may appear to us, especially at this juncture in the world's history, we should not shrink from facing the fact that the problem of war and peace cannot be solved within the actual system in foreign politics. The present work endeavours to show that the first step towards a new order of things in international relations is to remove from our political thought the existing conceptions of war and peace - that is to say, all conceptions which make the political life of a nation contradictory to the ideals of humanity. Only after such a radical change of mind can we build up something solid in international politics. In exposing the artificial character of the proposals advanced on behalf of a League of Nations, I have had in view more their development in the future than their possible results at present. That any League of Nations is better than none cannot be gainsaid; but there should be a wider understanding about the meaning of such a vast enterprise. If we do not do the work thoroughly, we shall have to undo it sooner or later; and we shall relapse into our former position on account of the very fact that we have not changed our values in foreign politics.
