Sommario/riassunto

Malgré leurs apparences contraires, la guerre et le jeu ont des rapports multiples et intimes. En trois sections thématiques (historique et politique, littéraire, médiatique), cet ouvrage entreprend de décrire leurs connexions à l’ère moderne. La guerre classique, comme le jeu de Stratego ou les échecs, repose sur des champs réglés et symétriques. Avec la guerre moderne, cet espace agonal d’un combat « chevaleresque » comme jeu « noble » (Huizinga) cède sa place à un espace de la terreur et de la mort aléatoire et sans limites. Le terrorisme actuel s’apparente à un jeu de hasard mortel. La stratégie nucléaire, quand bien même fondée sur la théorie des jeux et un équilibre statistique, demeure aujourd’hui un pari macabre et fatal.  Ce livre offre une réflexion dynamique et transversale sur les multiples facettes culturelles de cette relation paradoxale qui lie le jeu et la guerre moderne : de Naudé concevant le peuple comme un pion manipulé par un souverain démiurge, aux analogies médiatiques entre musique et guerre dans le documentaire filmique Heavy Metal in Baghdad, en passant par Schlieffen élaborant sa stratégie dans des Kriegsspiele militaires, ou encore par le Jeu de la Guerre de Debord et son adaptation « situationniste » en wargame informatique. Au final, Guerre et jeu offre une grille de lecture des grands équilibres et déséquilibres politico-stratégiques de notre monde et de l’histoire aux aléas d’une guerre hasardeuse.

Sommario/riassunto

This book focuses on the survey technology, post-processing technology, mapping technology and scientific application of the submarine topography and geomorphology in detail. High-resolution submarine geomorphology is a frontier branch of Marine Geology and marine surveying and mapping, which provides a direct basis to study the seabed surface, to understand the tectonic movement and submarine evolution. In the past two decades, high-resolution submarine geomorphology with high-precision multi-beam echo



sounding, side-scan sonar and shallow bottom profile as the major techniques, is developing very quickly and is one of the frontiers of international marine science and technology. These high techniques promote the traditional submarine geomorphology to high-resolution and quantitative research. At present, high-resolution submarine geomorphology is widely used in the delimitation of the continental shelf and the international seabed resources survey, marine engineering and marine military applications. In order to facilitate readers to understand how to acquire and apply scientific research based on landform data, it highlights the combination of theory, technology and scientific application. This book is useful as a reference for professional and technical personnel in related fields and also as a textbook for both graduate and undergraduate students as well.
