Document Summary
There is still a need for supply or logistic to understand what we know and feel. There are a hegemon to understand the culture of war. Conventional + bounded + regular + explicit (has its own place and time) Unconventional + de-bounded + irregular + implicit. Gave us a way to think about war in a different time and a different place. He acknowledges that it is difficult to see war from outside of your own reality. He dedicated a lot of time on the ontology, condition, space-time, and conduct of war. Ontology; means of being and how things become how they are. War is a lot of things, it is an active force to make our enemy to do our will. Merely a continuation of policy by other means. Thinking of being watched to change the way one acts. Form of power that does not restrains people, but a power to make people live their lives in acceptable ways.
