Defense in Clausewitz's on War and in FM 100-5 and Hdv 100/100 - War College Series by Gertmann Sude
This study examines the validity of Clausewitz's conclusions about the defense on the future battlefield. It discusses the correctness of the adoption of Clausewitz's ideas in the operational manuals of the American and German Army (Field Manual 100-5, Operations; Army Regulation 100/100 (HDv 100/100), Command and Control in Battle) and the application of NATO's doctrine in the light of 'On War'. The study deals with the purpose and conduct of defensive operations and examines specific criteria, which make defense a stronger form of operation than offense. The study concludes that Clausewitz has great significance for the training and education of modern officers. Most of his ideas on defense are correctly recognized in the manuals. However, political and area restrictions in Central Europe do not support Clausewitz's considerations. Quotations of 'On War' should be made with reservation because the criteria for some of Clausewitz's conclusions have changed. The impact of human and moral factors, which Clausewitz discusses in part of his writing, is found to be well reflected in FM 100-5 and HDv 100/100.| SKU | Unavailable |
