G#ndirea militar` rom#neasc` ~ 3/2002<br />
[i strategia luptei armate,<br />
proiecteaz`, \n spa]iul necesit`]ii<br />
teoretice, reconsider`ri iminente.<br />
Realitatea ne arat` c` nu suntem<br />
martori doar ai unei disolu]ii<br />
a valorilor pe care s-a \ntemeiat<br />
arta militar`, ci ai unei crize<br />
provocate de evolu]ia \n progresie<br />
geometric` a comunic`rii<br />

Gestionarea, evaluarea [i caracterizarea<br />

R`zboiul postmodern,<br />

and strategy project, in the pace<br />
of theoretical requirements,<br />
iminent reevaluation. The reality<br />
shows that we are the witnesses<br />
not only of the dissolution of<br />
the values bying at the formulation<br />
of military art, but of a crisis<br />
caused by the evolution in<br />
a geometrical progression of<br />
communication and information,<br />
fact that even more emphasizes<br />
the mission of the social and cultural<br />
dimensions in the development<br />
of war techologics.<br />
The management evaluation<br />
and characterization of effects<br />
undoubty have their meaning, but,<br />
in the conditions when generations<br />
of theses, ideas, concepts<br />
and doctrines succeed at intervals<br />
that accomplished career,<br />
we cannot take into account the<br />
fact that only the primitive accumulation<br />
of experiences could<br />
being benefits otherwise than<br />
doubtful.<br />
Hurried triumph of globalization<br />
over a world teared to pieces<br />
by decimating conflicts, post-modernity<br />
has convincinely influenced<br />
the purpose of the military<br />
institution. The post-modern war,<br />
in its lawful, principled data,<br />
and especially in its procedural,<br />
operational ones, as well as in<br />
those related to its objective,<br />
seems to be evident. But could<br />
it has been otherwise ?<br />
