The successful application of the Fifth Generation of Warfare (5GW)
is "indistinguishable from magic" (Rees 2009, following in the
spirit of Clarke's Law, propounded by the author of 2001: A Space
Odyssey) "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable
from magic"). The Fifth-Generation warrior hides in the shadows, or
in the static. So, then, how can analysts and researchers study and
discuss 5GW?
Other questions also demand answers. What is the xGW framework,
which many theorists use to describe 5GW? What alternatives to the
xGW framework exist? What 5GWs have been observed? What are the
source documents for the xGW framework? What is the universe of
discourse that the xGW framework emerged from? Why bother trying to
understand 5GW?
This handbook attempts to provide systematic answers to these
questions in several major sections, each of which is written by
many contributors. While this handbook records many different
voices of 5GW research, it speaks with one voice on the need to
understand 5GW, the fifth gradient of warfare.
