Description McNair Paper 68. Examines the question of whether Clausewitzian friction would succumb to the changes in leading-edge warfare that may lie ahead, or whether such impediments reflect more enduring aspects of war that technology can only affect marginally. Clausewitzian friction refers to the theory by Carl von Clausewitz (1780-1831) that reality exerts a kind of friction on ideas and intentions in war. This term is commonly associated with the diverse difficulties and impediments to the effective use of military force. Includes footnotes and an index.
