It posits that military power holds an intrinsic significance within the international system, and strategy serves as the conduit through which military power can be harnessed to attain political goals. Given the destructive potential of modern weapons, the primary objective of the strategic doctrines of major powers lies not in the pursuit of war but in utilizing their military capabilities to advance their interests through less catastrophic means.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile strategy retains many of its traditional characteristics outside the context of the Cold War superpower confrontation, this book meticulously examines both types of strategic variations. It provides a deep understanding of the complex interplay between military power, politics, and international relations, offering valuable insights for scholars, policymakers, and enthusiasts alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 612g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367611446\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Baylis,Ken Booth,John Garnett,Phil Williams","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44104023867642,"sku":"9780367611446","price":36.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1658489140487_book.jpg?v=1658736880","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/contemporary-strategy-theories-and-policies-9780367611446","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
