This volume brings together some of Professor Azar Gat's most
significant articles on the evolution of strategic doctrines and
the transformation of war during the 20th and early 21st centuries.
It sheds new light on the rise of the German Panzer arm and the
doctrine of Blitzkrieg between the two world wars; explores the
factors behind the formation of strategic policy and military
doctrine in the world war era and during the cold war; and explains
why counterinsurgency has become such a problem. The book concludes
with the spread of peace in the developed world, challenged as it
is by the rise of the authoritarian-capitalist great powers - China
and Russia - and by the chilling prospect of unconventional
terrorism. This last essay summarizes the author's latest research
and has not previously been published in article form. This
collection will be of much interest to students of strategic
studies, military history, and international relations.
