The new face of war

Meer over het boek

The exploration of politics as a fundamental aspect of the Trinity highlights its role in understanding societal dynamics and the management of conflict. Aron argues that while military experts excel in battlefield tactics, they lack insight into societal capabilities and the nuances of human emotions like hatred. He critiques the misunderstandings surrounding Clausewitz's work, attributing them to its incomplete nature and the intellectual shortcomings of French military scholars who misinterpreted his ideas, particularly regarding military brutality and the essence of warfare.
