Why America loses wars: limited war and US strategy from the Korean War to the present

Are we at war? What do we want? And do we want to win?

The way we think about war (particularly limited war) is broken: here is how we fix it

The political objective: why nations fight (limited) wars

Constraints: or why wars for limited aims are so difficult

Strategy: how to think about fighting for a limited political objective

And you thought the war was hard: ending the war and securing the peace

Conclusion: is history rhyming?
