Clausewitz on Space War: An Essay on the Strategic Aspects of Military Operations in Space - Softcover
This paper is meant to be suggestive of issues that strategic planners might consider as they look ahead to the possibility of military space operations in the twenty-first century. It uses as its analytical framework Carl von Clausewitz's concept of war which holds that military operations are dominated by intangible human factors and therefore are largely unpredictable. The paper begins with a discussion of how the views of Clausewitz are confirmed in the writings of some leading modem military analysts and in the mathematical concept of chaos. It then projects Clausewitz's concept of war onto future military space operations by examining US's civilian space activities for evidence that intangible factors like luck, friction, danger and genius have influenced these activities and are, therefore, likely to affect military operations in space.
