World's War Events Volume 3 Beginning with the departure of the first American destroyers for service abroad in April, 1917, and closing with the treaties of peace in 1919. But Clausewitz held that policy must always be the master. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy They call Clausewitz obsolete today, but they still learn him very thoroughly. What Need of Man? Clausewitz justifies Napoleon's caution in withholding his Guard. The Life of Napoleon I (Complete) He said Clausewitz was the only tactician, and he illustrated his theories with cigar-ends. A Diversity of Creatures These are the words of Clausewitz, the great philosopher of war, and he is incontestably right. Germany and the Next War The second classification to which we are led by the political theory of war, is one which Clausewitz was the first to formulate and one to which he came to attach the highest importance. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy Perhaps because Clausewitz was a German before they became Nazis. What Need of Man? Against this view he successfully marshals Napoleon himself, Wellington by the mouth of Lord Ellesmere, and the great German strategist Clausewitz. Camps, Quarters, and Casual Places He got them unbrokenly for ten minutes--Wontner and Clausewitz mixed, but Wontner in a film of priceless cognac distinctly on top. A Diversity of Creatures Clausewitz lays down the principle that war is the legitimate carrying-out of state policy; the state relies upon war to execute its designs. The World Decision By the classification in question Clausewitz distinguished wars into those with a "Limited" object and those whose object was "Unlimited." Some Principles of Maritime Strategy No one knew better the value of what Clausewitz called, "The product of armed force and the country's force … the heart and soul of a nation." Battle Studies War, of course, in the broadest sense has been characterized by Clausewitz to include substantial elements of "fog, friction, and fear." Shock and Awe — Achieving Rapid Dominance And so, by way of an eighty-year-old liqueur brandy, to tactics and the great General Clausewitz, unknown to the Average Army Man. A Diversity of Creatures The Yugoslav succession wars were not wars in the Clausewitz sense - rather they were protracted guerrilla operations intended to ethnically purge swathes of the "motherland". b. After the Rain : how the West lost the East Such a view of the subject was of course a wide departure from the theory of "Absolute War" on which Clausewitz had started working. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy This is another gross error, which Clausewitz has thoroughly disposed of. The Fifteen Decisive Battles of the World: from Marathon to Waterloo Third, Rapid Dominance draws on the strategic uses of force as envisaged by Sun Tzu and Clausewitz to overpower or affect the will, perception, and understanding of the adversary for strategic aims and military objectives. Shock and Awe — Achieving Rapid Dominance Oh yes, and then we asked him to drink old Clausewitz's health, as a brother-tactician, in milk-punch and Worcester sauce, and so on. A Diversity of Creatures The general read them; he then fixed his piercing eyes on Clausewitz, and said: 'Clausewitz, you are a Prussian! Napoleon and Blucher This second distinction—that is, between Limited and Unlimited wars—Clausewitz regarded as of greater importance than his previous one founded on the negative or positive nature of the object. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy Von Clausewitz was the first to explicitly point out that war continues politics, while other writers on the subject, living centuries before he did, perceived war as a practical effort. The Civilization of Illiteracy In 1812 Clausewitz, with several other Prussian officers, having entered the Russian service, his first appointment was as Aide-de-camp to General Phul. On War — Volume 1 Whether the limited form is justifiable or not therefore depends, as Clausewitz points out, on the geographical position of the object. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy General York said so; I was present when Clausewitz came to him. Napoleon and Blucher It is under the first category of his first main classification "Of offensive wars to assert rights," that he deals with what Clausewitz would call "Limited Wars." Some Principles of Maritime Strategy Von Clausewitz's line encompasses the extension in language of the many aspects of wars. The Civilization of Illiteracy After the close of the Russian campaign Clausewitz remained in the service of that country, but was attached as a Russian staff officer to Blucher's headquarters till the Armistice in 1813. On War — Volume 1 Possessions which lie oversea or at the extremities of vast areas of imperfectly settled territory are in an entirely different category from those limited objects which Clausewitz contemplated. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy York was silent, and repeatedly paced the room, absorbed in his reflections; he then gave Clausewitz his hand, and said in a firm voice, and with a sublime air, 'You have me! Napoleon and Blucher It is even more curious in the case of Clausewitz, since we know that in the plenitude of his powers he came to regard this classification as the master-key of the subject. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy For so it was, though it must be said that except in the light of Clausewitz's doctrine the full meaning of Bacon's famous aphorism is not revealed. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy This anecdote is only interesting as the mention of Kiesewetter points to a circumstance in the life of Clausewitz that may have had an influence in forming those habits of thought which distinguish his writings. On War — Volume 1 It would be difficult to state more pithily the ultimate significance of Clausewitz's doctrine. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy It is much to be regretted that Clausewitz did not live to see with Bacon's eyes and to work out the full comprehensiveness of his doctrine. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy Whatever practical importance we may attach to the distinction, so much must be admitted on the clear and emphatic pronouncements of Clausewitz and Jomini. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy Clausewitz gave it provisionally the name of "War limited by contingent," and could find no place for it in his system. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy The way," says General Brandt, "in which General Clausewitz judged of things, drew conclusions from movements and marches, calculated the times of the marches, and the points where decisions would take place, was extremely interesting. On War — Volume 1 Consequently, they appear to call for some such special classification, and to fall naturally into the category which Clausewitz called "War limited by contingent." Some Principles of Maritime Strategy It was in the sixth chapter of his last book that Clausewitz intended to deal with this anomalous form of hostility. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy Standing at the final point which Clausewitz and Jomini reached, we are indeed only on the threshold of the subject. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy Clausewitz, at any rate, as General Von Caemmerer has pointed out,7 was far too practical a soldier to commit himself to so abstract a proposition in all its modern crudity. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy What Darwin accomplished for Biology generally Clausewitz did for the Life-History of Nations nearly half a century before him, for both have proved the existence of the same law in each case, viz., On War — Volume 1 So entirely indeed does history, no less than theory, fail to support the idea of the one answer, that it would seem that even in Germany a reaction to Clausewitz's real teaching is beginning. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy She had no such preponderance as Clausewitz laid down as a condition precedent to attempting the overthrow of her enemy—the employment of unlimited war. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy It is clear that Clausewitz himself never apprehended the full significance of his brilliant theory. Some Principles of Maritime Strategy It is this form of attack which constitutes what Clausewitz calls the "surprise advantage of defence." Some Principles of Maritime Strategy Most of our present-day politicians have made their money in business—a "form of human competition greatly resembling War," to paraphrase Clausewitz. On War — Volume 1 But these alterations in method make no difference in the truth of the picture of War which Clausewitz presents, with which every soldier, and above all every Leader, should be saturated. On War — Volume 1 |
