This book by military strategist Andrew F. Krepinevich, Jr., is the definitive take on the race for military dominance in the twenty-first century.

Hybrid war, grey-zone warfare, unrestricted war: Today, traditional conflict - fought with guns, bombs, and drones - has become too expensive to wage, too unpopular at home, and too difficult to manage. In an age when America threatens Europe with sanctions, and when China spends billions buying influence abroad, the world is heading for a new era of permanent low-level conflict, often unnoticed, undeclared, and unending.

Estrategia es un libro mítico, un clásico inencontrable en España, que inspiró a insignes militares y fue lectura de cabecera de Kennedy durante la crisis de los misiles de Cuba en 1962.

The Russian invasion of Crimea in 2014, subsequent war in Eastern Ukraine, and economic sanctions imposed by the West transformed European politics. The conflict did not escalate to the levels originally feared but nor was either side able to bring it to a definitive conclusion.

President Putin was left supporting a separatist enclave as Russia's economy suffered significant damage.

Autoritäre Regierungen unterhöhlen die EU, Russland und China gefährden die westlichen Demokratien und den globalen Frieden. Im Äußeren wie im Inneren steht Deutschland unter Druck. Wenn wir bewahren wollen, was uns kostbar ist, müssen wir uns rüsten. Dabei ist es längst nicht ausreichend, die Bundeswehr zu ertüchtigen.
