Reimagining War in the 21st Century : from Clausewitz to Network-Centric Warfare

This monograph makes a case to rethink the foundations of the normative concept of war by engaging in a primarily philosophical interrogation of the Clausewitzian theory of war and of the late-modern theory of network-centric warfare. Very few studies exist that attempt to investigate the nexus between war and (western) philosophy. Even fewer studies exist that engage in the reimagination of the concept of war. The monograph is, arguably, singular in its attempt to do both. It is also one of those rare efforts that invokes not only Western – Continental and Post-Continental – but also Indian (specifically, Advaitic) philosophy.
