Paralysis: A Revolutionary Form of War

摘要

In summary, the linear paradigm that has dominated man's thinking is being replaced with a world where distance, speed, and time acquire new meaning. This new paradigm will offer a new form of war, relying on parallel rather than sequential actions. In this emerging form of war, the concepts of mass, concentration, and maneuver will be replaced by precision and systematic targeting Ideally, one who masters this form of war will be able to quickly paralyze the adversary and achieve the enduring objective of breaking the opponent's will However, the Clausewitzian timeless concepts of complexity, fog and friction, commander's genius, and the essence of war as described in the trinity will continue to define the nature, purpose, and conduct of war Paralysis, while revolutionary in form, will ultimately not change the human essence of war.
