When AI replaces judgment in war, humans could cease to be subjects and become mere tools.\u003cbr\u003e So he says.\u003cbr\u003e “For humans to maintain sustainable authority as operators of AI, they must cultivate rational, emotional, social, and motor intelligence.” This sentence encapsulates the philosophical attitude that humans must maintain in the age of technology.\u003cbr\u003e Based on his lifelong military experience, Ryu Je-seung extends the concept of \"professional calling\" to military ethics. \u003cbr\u003eAn officer's life is a journey of embodying a sense of professional calling and promoting a culture of military professionalism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e For him, the military is not just an organization, but an ethical entity.\u003cbr\u003e He cites Max Weber's political ethics and suggests a balance of conviction and responsibility as a virtue for a leader.\u003cbr\u003e Weber's teaching that \"the ethics of conviction and the ethics of responsibility must be dialectically harmonized\" remains valid for today's defense leadership.\u003cbr\u003e The core of the book is a reinterpretation of the relationship between war and politics.\u003cbr\u003e It is a self-evident truth that one must know war to see and achieve peace.\u003cbr\u003e He sees war not as mere violence, but as a continuation of human will and politics.\u003cbr\u003e “We can prevent war and maintain peace only by knowing and preparing for the nature of war,” he said, adding that peace is not the absence of war, but rather the product of reason that controls war. \u003cbr\u003eSo he warns, “The trend of pursuing only peace and neglecting strategic thinking about war is dangerous.”\u003cbr\u003e It is a sharp criticism of today's discourse on diplomacy and national defense.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This book also presents the spirit that the military of a liberal democratic country must uphold.\u003cbr\u003e A nation worthy of its name and a military worthy of its name must have a culture of military professionalism alive and breathing.\u003cbr\u003e He combines military ethics with constitutional values, demonstrating that civilian control and respect for human rights can coexist with military professionalism.\u003cbr\u003e This idea is a bridge between war and peace, and a fundamental reflection on the reason for the military's existence.\u003cbr\u003e Above all, the true value of this book lies in its modern interpretation of the classic 『On War』. \u003cbr\u003e“On War provides insight into not only the physical phenomena of war but also the spiritual causes and effects inherent within it, through the logic of philosophical thought.” The author says that this classic remains “a classic among classics that leads us to realize the truth of war and grasp the philosophical propositions of military professionalism.”\u003cbr\u003e Ultimately, the message Ryu Je-seung is trying to convey is clear.\u003cbr\u003e War must be avoided, but to avoid it, one must know about it.\u003cbr\u003e The study of war is not a preparation for violence, but a training of reason to control violence.\u003cbr\u003e He writes:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “If you don’t want to go to war, you have to be able to go to war.”\u003cbr\u003e This paradox is the human condition and the ethics of civilization.\u003cbr\u003e “Understanding War is the Key to Peace” is not just a book on military science.\u003cbr\u003e It is a story about human responsibility, the morality of politics, and the restoration of reason as the foundation of peace. \u003cbr\u003eThe final sentence, “The essence of truth is freedom,” is the author’s lifelong conclusion and emphasizes that it is a civilizational creed that our time must re-inscribe.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e You can preview some of the book's contents.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan\u003ePreview\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003ch5\u003e \u003cb\u003eindex\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e Recommendation 04\u003cbr\u003e Prologue: The Professional's Calling: 10 Secrets to Overcoming Crisis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePart 1: Why Again, the Nature of War?

Except for the first part, \"The Nature of War, Chapter 1: What is War?\", which Clausewitz considered to be the only complete work, the other parts and chapters are unfinished works that he revised to further strengthen the logic and expression.\u003cbr\u003e If you savor the meaning of the sentences imbued with the realities of state management and the sense of war that Clausewitz faced in his masterpiece, On War, to which he devoted his entire life, you will more than confirm his military genius.\u003cbr\u003e We will also have the pleasure of learning from Clausewitz the coup d'oeil that will enable us to infer the nature of causality inherent in a series of phenomena that we will observe and experience in future wars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe core propositions of 『On War』\u003cbr\u003e Reinterpretation from a modern perspective\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThis book reinterprets the core propositions of Clausewitz's On War from a modern perspective, providing a clear analytical framework for the security dilemmas we face today.\u003cbr\u003e In particular, through the proposition that “war is simply a continuation of politics by other means,” it illuminates the principle of civilian control and the diplomatic and military operation of the ROK-US alliance, and diagnoses the national crisis response capacity through the concept of the “amazing trinity (people-military-government).”\u003cbr\u003e The beauty of this book is that all discussions ultimately converge on the concrete alternatives of 'military professionalism' and 'mission-based command.' \u003cbr\u003eThe author cites Clausewitz's insight that \"to become a strong nation, one must build a strong army, and the secret of a strong army lies in the judgment of the officer corps,\" and strongly urges a comprehensive reform of the officer education system and the establishment of a philosophy of \"mission-based command\" in which officers exercise autonomy within the will of their superiors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “Protecting the nation from external threats or invasion is the most important national responsibility, and the most important group to fulfill that responsibility is the military, and the officer corps plays a central role in that.\u003cbr\u003e If the system for selecting and managing excellent officers who lead such an important organization by example is poor, wouldn't it be difficult for the soldiers themselves and the public to trust our national defense?\" \"'Military professionalism' and mission-oriented command are rooted in Clausewitz's theory of military genius and lack of virtue. \u003cbr\u003eIf we optimize the officer corps' education and personnel management systems to embody and implement this philosophy and values, we will be able to cultivate an officer corps centered around military geniuses brimming with a strong sense of national identity, exceptional battlefield imagination, and genuine courage, thereby fostering a culture of \"military professionalism.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e21st Century Survival Strategies from Clausewitz\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “Understanding War is the Key to Peace” is the intellectual prescription most urgently needed in South Korea today.\u003cbr\u003e The first translator of the German original of Clausewitz's 『On War』, a former Director of the National Defense Policy Office, and Ambassador to the UAE, his experience in both military and military affairs, policy, and diplomacy, is condensed into this one book.\u003cbr\u003e The author pursues cool-headed strategic realism, not vague pacifism, based on the paradoxical truth that “in order to avoid war, one must be able to wage war.”\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe core of this book is redefining strategy in the age of nuclear weapons, AI, and cognitive warfare.\u003cbr\u003e “Military strategy and diplomatic strategy are like a two-person bicycle,” he said, emphasizing the wisdom of combining victory as a means and peace as the end.\u003cbr\u003e In particular, through the proposition that “the art of war is the art of deterrence,” it preaches the importance of sophisticated deterrence management against the North Korean nuclear threat and sharp strategic concepts such as “first use.”\u003cbr\u003e Furthermore, he emphasizes the need for \"military genius\" equipped with foresight and decisiveness amidst the friction and cognitive fog of the AI ​​era, and strongly calls for \"military professionalism\" through intellectual armament.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This book, strongly recommended by former Ministers of National Defense Lee Sang-hee, Kim Kwan-jin, and Han Min-koo, is a must-read for all those responsible for national security and all intellectuals who will lead the Republic of Korea to understand the essence of war and gain the wisdom to protect peace.
