THE MILITARY CULTURE AND THE STRATEGIC ART
Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2005, Vol 16, Issue 3
Abstract
The military profession seems pragmatic and, within this framework, it is free of creative artistic and theoretic complexities, geopolitics paradigms and cultural vocations. There is still, for some of us, a very simple logic, even simplistic, according to which the soldier must only carry out orders. For a soldier, other individuals must think. Or, in any case, the soldier’s thinking should limit utmost to the strategic domain, specifically, to the ways and methods to put into practice a political decision related to a war or any other type of military involvement. These methods (the art and science), to put into practice a political decision, represent the most current definition given to strategy.
