Bøger af Carl von Clausewitz

ON WAR is the most significant attempt in Western history to understand war, both in its internal dynamics and as an instrument of policy. Since the work's first appearance in 1832 it has been read throughout the world, and has stimulated generations of soilders statemen, and intellectuals from Marx and Bismarck to Raymond Aron.

This abridged edition of On War by Beatrice Heuser, using the acclaimed translation by Michael Howard and Peter Paret, selects the central books in which Clausewitz's views on the nature and theory of war are developed.

Skal baggrunden for krig søges i de sorteste og hemmeligste afkroge af menneskets sjæl? Eller er krig resultatet af en rationel forfølgelse af klart definerede politiske mål? Indblik i menneskers mod, kækhed, dristighed, frygt, men også moralske kræfter og militære fornuft er alt sammen vigtige elementer i Carl von Clausewitz' klassiske afhandling Om krig - uden sammenligning den vestlige histories mest indflydelsesrige analyse af krigens væsen og logik.Den preussiske generalmajor Clausewitz var selv med i krigene mod Napoleon, og hans skelsættende tanker om militær teori og praksis har påvirket generationer af statsmænd, intellektuelle, soldater og hellige krigere; Om krig har haft vidt forskellige læsere som Otto von Bismarck, Karl Marx, Michel Foucault og nogle af vor tids terrorister fra al-Qaeda.I denne nyudgivelse af Clausewitz har Mogens Chrom Jacobsen oversat værkets centrale dele. I sin introduktion reflekterer idehistoriker Mikkel Thorup bl.a. over den berømte tese, at krig blot er politikkens fortsættelse med andre midler, og han viser, at Clausewitz er uomgængelig, hvis man vil forstå det 21. århundredes krige i Irak og Afghanistan.

Der Krieg ist die Fortsetzung der Politik mit anderen Mitteln.? In den Streitkräften sieht Carl von Clausewitz das Mittel, den Zweck des Krieges, den Sieg, zu erreichen, während in der Strategie für ihn dieser Sieg nur das Mittel ist, den endgültigen Zweck der Strategie, den Frieden zu erreichen. Die höhere Strategie nähert sich so der Politik, bleibt aber der von ihr bestimmten Zielsetzung untergeordnet.

Edición en tapa blanda del clásico de estrategia del General Carl von Clausewitz. El general prusiano Carl von Clausewitz, historiador especializado en temas bélicos y destacado profundizador del fenómeno de la guerra, nació en 1780 en Burg, cerca de Magdeburgo (Alemania). Hijo de un miembro del ejército de Federico el Grande, ingresó muy joven en la carrera de soldado. En 1801 siguió los cursos de la Academia Militar de Berlín, bajo la dirección del general Gerhard von Scharnhorst, gran reorganizador del ejército prusiano. Después fue nombrado ayudante de campo del príncipe Augusto de Prusia, junto al cual sirvió en el infortunado encuentro con las tropas de Napoleón en Jena (1806). Caído en poder de los franceses, permaneció prisionero hasta 1809. Tras recuperar la libertad, actuó como profesor en la misma academia militar berlinesa donde había consolidado su experiencia, y con posterioridad asumió el cargo de jefe de sección del Ministerio de la Guerra alemán. En 1812 decidió formar parte del ejército ruso. Tan dramática iniciativa permite captar a las claras el concepto de la ética militar que Clausewitz poseía, pues la confrontación con su propio país no constituía para él más que el recurso de valerse de la guerra para liberar a aquél del dominio francés. Federico Guillermo III se había visto obligado a someterse a la presión de Napoleón, y Prusia se había convertido en aliada forzosa de Francia. Clausewitz alimentaba la esperanza de que el zar Alejandro I redimiría a su nación de la atadura napoleónica, y esa expectativa fue la que le impulsó a ocupar el bando contrario a sus mismos compatriotas, con el fin de conseguir la anhelada liberación. En efecto, la batalla de Leipzig significó la extinción de la influencia francesa sobre Alemania, y él, tras escribir, por encargo de otra gran personalidad militar prusiana, el mariscal de campo August von Gneisenau, el libro La campaña de 1813 hasta el armisticio, se incorporó de nuevo, en 1814, al ejército prusiano, con el que pudo asistir a la batalla triunfal de Waterloo. De 1816 a 1830 ejerció la dirección de la Academia Militar de Berlín, la cual sólo dejó para ocupar un cargo en el Estado Mayor alemán. Falleció en 1831 en Breslau, fulminado por el cólera, cuando contaba 51 años. Su obra De la guerra, que le procuraría la fama, tuvo una publicación póstuma, a instancias de su viuda. De la guerra comprende ocho libros, de los que la edición que se ofrece recoge integramente los tres primeros. De los libros IV y V se incluye un resumen del contenido, mientras que del libro VI, dedicado a La defensa, se reproducen los capitales capítulos I, II, III y XXVI, y se hace lo propio con el libro VII, relativo al Ataque, del que se incluye el capítulo XXII, no sin dar siempre noticia de lo omitido. Finalmente, del libro VIII, siguiendo la misma pauta, se ofrece el concluyente capítulo VI, en sus dos partes. Se presenta de este modo la parte más esencial de la obra de Clausewitz, cuya influencia sobre la concepción de la guerra no sólo constituyó la base del pensamiento militar alemán hasta la ascensión al poder del nacionalsocialismo, sino que fue tenida en cuenta por un pensador marxista como Engels, y luego por otros líderes comunistas como Lenin o Mao Zedong, en la delineación de su estrategia revolucionaria. Sin embargo, la vigencia de las doctrinas de Clausewitz no ha cesado de ponerse de manifiesto en los numerosos estudios especializados que se les han dedicado y en el hecho de que hayan contribuido a asentar los principios que conforman la teoría actual de la guerra.

Fascinated by the leading military figures of his day, Prussian General Carl von Clausewitz spent over ten years writing a book - "On War" - that he would never finish. The book examines the tactics of Napoleon, Frederick II of Prussia, and others. In this insightful, well-informed work of military analysis, Von Clausewitz theorizes that war is an instrument of political commerce.

Clausewitz had many aphorisms, of which the most famous is, "War is not merely a political act, but also a political instrument, a continuation of political relations, a carrying out of the same by other means," a working definition of war which has won wide acceptance.

" We propose to consider first the single elements of our subject, then each branch or part, and, last of all, the whole, in all its relations therefore to advance from the simple to the complex. But it is necessary for us to commence with a glance at the nature of the whole, because it is particularly necessary that in the consideration of any of the parts their relation to the whole should be kept constantly in view. We shall not enter into any of the abstruse definitions of War used by publicists. We shall keep to the element of the thing itself, to a duel. War is nothing but a duel on an extensive scale. If we would conceive as a unit the countless number of duels which make up a War, we shall do so best by supposing to ourselves two wrestlers. Each strives by physical force to compel the other to submit to his will: each endeavours to throw his adversary, and thus render him incapable of further resistance."

" Le combat est l¿instrument de la stratégie pour arriver au but de la guerre. À proprement parler, c¿est là l¿unique usage que la stratégie ait à faire du combat. Or comme ce sont les forces armées qui livrent le com- bat et que celui-ci réagit, à son tour, sur les forces armées, la théorie de la stratégie doit nécessairement prendre en considération les forces armées dans leurs principales relations. Elle doit pareillement tenir compte des facultés intellectuelles et morales qui distinguent les forces années, car ce sont là les plus importants facteurs du combat. En procédant ainsi, la théorie enseigne l¿unique moyen de calculer les résultats possibles du combat."
