The Clash of The Trinities

Focusing on the philosophical underpinnings of warfare, Major Daniel Maurer examines the essential nature of war, arguing for a universal reference point to enhance its study. He highlights the absence of consensus among scholars and practitioners regarding what constitutes war. By establishing a clearer understanding of war's fundamental characteristics, Maurer believes that the diverse forms and trends of warfare can be better analyzed and contextualized within a theoretical framework that acknowledges variations across different times and cultures.
