Future Peace Notre Dame, IN : University of Notre Dame Press,c2022 9780268201890 A Giant Armed Nervous System -- Urges to Violence -- Stumbling into War -- Avoiding War.""Future Peace" urges extreme caution in the adoption of new weapons technology and is an impassioned plea for peace from an individual who spent decades preparing for war. Today's militaries are increasingly reliant on highly networked autonomous systems, artificial intelligence and advanced weapons that were previously the domain of science fiction writers. In a world where these complex technologies clash with escalating international tensions, what can we do to decrease the chances of war? In "Future Peace", the eagerly awaited sequel to "Future War", Robert H. Latiff questions our overreliance on technology and examines the pressure-cooker scenario created by the growing animosity between the United States and its adversaries, our globally deployed and thinly stretched military, the capacity for advanced technology to catalyze violence, and the American public's lack of familiarity with these topics. "Future Peace" describes the many provocations to violence and how technologies are abetting those urges, and it explores what can be done to mitigate not only dangerous human behaviors but also dangerous technical behaviors. Latiff concludes that peace is possible but will require intense, cooperative efforts on the part of technologists, military leaders, diplomats, politicians, and citizens. "Future Peace" amplifies some well-known ideas about how to address the issues, and provides far-, mid-, and short-term recommendations for actions that are necessary to reverse the apparent headlong rush into conflict. This compelling and timely book will captive general readers, students, and scholars of global affairs, international security, arms control, and military ethics."--Dust jacket.PeaceCivilization, Modern21st centuryViolenceSocial aspectsViolenceUnited StatesHistory21st centuryWarForecastingWarMoral and ethical aspectsWorld politicsUnited StatesfastHistory.fastInformational works.lcgftPeace.Civilization, ModernViolenceSocial aspects.ViolenceHistoryWarForecasting.WarMoral and ethical aspects.World politics.327.172Latiff Robert H.1950-1490565MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910795773803321Future Peace3711997UNINA
