A theory of war as conflict without rulesFlaherty, Christopher January 2017 (has links)
Theoretical understandings of war have been dominated by the thought of Clausewitz for a number of decades. His thought is valid in many respects, but for various reasons it is open to misinterpretation and misunderstanding; furthermore, a number of his observations (particularly on the prevalence of chance and uncertainty in war) are not fully explored and substantiated theoretically. This thesis is an attempt to present and elucidate a new theoretical understanding of war's nature which complements Clausewitz's theories and addresses these concerns: this is the understanding of war as a form of violent conflict which is not bound by rules. The thesis consists of five main chapters. The first is an in-depth study of Clausewitz, which will provide an exegesis of his theories and highlight the deficiencies in his thought, before positing how understanding war as ‘violent conflict without rules' could be used to address and explain them. The second chapter is a study of the theory of rules, examining in particular the role they play in moderating conflict: we can find that amongst other things, rules lend predictability and psychological security to a contest, restrict the scope of physical harm and tend to preserve the political and social status quo. As war lacks rules (in the sense that there are no ‘rules of war' as there are ‘rules of chess'), it therefore lacks these benefits. A following chapter on the laws and customs of war will address cases where war appears to be bound by rules, and clarify my position. The final two chapters explore the implications of war's lack of rules with reference to two areas which are most commonly associated with war. The fourth chapter on strategy will explore how this military concept is necessitated by war's ruleless nature; the final chapter will examine the uniquely violent, physical nature of war through the same theoretical prism, and will show how the technological innovation associated with war is a consequence of its lack of regulation, and a potent contributor to the chance and uncertainty which plagues warfare.

The ability to fight is, according to Swedish Armed Forces Doctrine (MilitärstrategiskDoktrin), depending upon the physical component, the conceptual component and themoral component.The purpose of this thesis is to examine in what way the Swedish doctrine is based onthe theories on war and war fighting by Sun Zi, Carl von Clausewitz, Antoine Henri deJomini and Mao Tse-tung.I have found that the Swedish doctrine is based on those theories.However, the Swedish doctrine needs to be developed in order to better explain therelation between the three components. / Avdelning: ALB - Slutet Mag 3 C-upps.Hylla: Upps.

La paix et la guerre et la téléologie naturelle de l'hommeLégaré, Jacques 07 February 2022 (has links)
Par l'étude philosophique de l'ensemble du développement historique de l'homme et des réalités politiques contemporaines, cette thèse de Philosophie politique et de Philosophie de l'Histoire cherche à démontrer que l'homme est habité depuis toujours par un désir naturel de paix qui le conduit à construire un espace pacifié de plus en plus grand, à la limite, planétaire. Par delà les conflits les plus nombreux et les plus virulents dont l'Histoire fut le théâtre, et malgré leur apparente pérennité, se dessine un mouvement en vue d'une paix universelle et durable. En vue de cette démonstration, cette thèse propose un concept nouveau qui a pour nom "espace pacifié". En outre, cette thèse aborde plus spécifiquement le problème dichotomique de la paix et de la guerre par un commentaire critique de quelques-unes des œuvres les plus percutantes sur cette question, dont De la Guerre, de von. Clausewitz, Mars ou la guerre jugée d'Alain, de même que les œuvres d'autres savants et philosophes qui ont traité de la guerre et de la paix, tels Machiavel, Hobbes, Spinoza, Sorokin, Lorenz, ainsi que les représentants des Lumières que sont Locke, Rousseau et Kant. Finalement, elle tente d'élucider certains problèmes philosophiques que posent l'avènement et la sauvegarde de la paix par l'étude de thèmes particuliers.

Previous issue date: 2008-05-26 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The purpose of this thesis is to argue the nature of the war in the thought of Carl von Clausewitz, from its workmanship On war. From modernity, the politics started to walk, through the national State, articulated to the war as one continuum. The military experiences lived by Clausewitz, at the end of century 18th and the beginning of century 19th, had been the source of its reflection, to the step that the aristocratic tradition offered a controversy and singular prism to observe the new Europe that appeared: bourgeois and nationalistic. Between The decay of the privileges of its class and the constitution of a new structure politics, Clausewitz said what it is the modern war. Its critics attribute to its thought the cause of many conflicts of century 20th. The modern concept of the war multiplies, runs away to its social context, and reproduces in other ideas and action / A proposta deste trabalho é discutir a natureza da guerra no pensamento de Carl von Clausewitz, a partir de sua obra Da guerra. A partir da modernidade, a política passou a caminhar, através do Estado nacional, articulada à guerra como um continuum. As experiências militares vividas por Clausewitz, entre o final do século XVIII e o início do século XIX, foram a fonte de sua reflexão, ao passo que a tradição aristocrática oferecia um prisma controverso e singular para enxergar a nova Europa que surgia: burguesa e nacionalista. Entre a decadência dos privilégios de sua classe e a constituição de uma nova estrutura política, Clausewitz disse o que é a guerra moderna. Seus críticos atribuem a seu pensamento a causa de muitos conflitos do século XX. O conceito moderno da guerra se multiplica, foge ao seu contexto social, reproduz-se em outras idéias e ações
