Clausewitz's 'Remarkable Trinity': National Security Strategy and Presidential Command and Control of the Armed Forces

Abstract

The end of the Cold War has changed the face of the world. No longer are the world powers of the United States and the Soviet Union irreconcilable antagonists nor are their actions aimed at countering each others' influence. Old national strategies, like the policy of worldwide containment, are no longer relevant. Gone is the age of continuous and open nonmilitary conflict between these powerful states during periods of nominal peace.
