She looks in depth at Clausewitz s arguments, reviews his theoretical approach, and discusses four key implications of the basic idea that political purposes govern war. In conclusion, the author suggests that Clausewitz has issued both statesmen and commanders a challenge. Commanders must appreciate the necessity of subordinating military means to political ends, and statesmen must think as strategists as they make decisions about the relationship between ends and means and the achievement of their goals. 606 $aCivil supremacy over the military 606 $aCivil-military relations 615 0$aCivil supremacy over the military. 615 0$aCivil-military relations. 676 $a322/.5 700 $aNielsen$b Suzanne C$01351900 712 02$aArmy War College (U.S.).$bStrategic Studies Institute 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910689460503321 996 $aPolitical control over the use of force$93397139 997 $aUNINA
