Influenced in part by the writings of Sun Tzu, Carl von Clausewitz, Henri Jomini, and other strategists, most major militaries have adopted principles of war that are widely promulgated. Marvin Pokrant argues that these commonly accepted principles fail to reflect the ideas that led to them. Looking at the fundamental and enduring concepts behind the original principles of war, Pokrant presents nine new principles of war. To illustrate his points Pokrant uses numerous examples drawn from military history, including land, sea, and air warfare from ancient times to the present. By analyzing and reforming the principles of war, Pokrant provides a modern, relevant, and useful way to guide decisions made in times of war.
How does a potential military leader learn the art of war? No one is born with the skills and knowledge to be a great military leader. People have to learn somehow. We can divide the way people learn to wage war into five categories:
- Their own experience in war. - Mentors: that is, the experience of a few living people. - Military history: that is, the experience of many people, living and dead. - Exercises, simulations, wargames, and analyses. - Indirect means such as studying psychology or playing games of strategy.
One’s own experience in war is the most vivid teacher. For instance, many American officers who served in the Vietnam War as lower-level officers saw many mistakes made and vowed never to repeat those mistakes when they achieved high rank. Although one’s own experiences are extremely influential, that is not necessarily the best way to learn. People generally learn more from failure than they learn from success. From a personal growth point of view, learning from failure is good, but from a results perspective, it is better to learn before failing.
