War is a socio-economic
conflict that arises between a group of people or nations. With it the state of
peace breaks and vanishes. The objective of war may vary. Controlling human or
natural resources or to impose any kind of religion or ideology, or
disarmament, and / or destruction of the enemy are among the objectives. In
science, politics and international relations, war is a political tool for a
state or organization for political purposes.
There are four
common types of wars that I will be commenting on this blog; total war, limited
war, guerrillas and civil war. Wars include the conflicts that have a nation
with another or internal conflicts among the citizens themselves. I’m also
going to analyze the twentieth century, which undoubtedly was the bloodiest by
the magnitude and persistence of this wars, including a bit of history. On the
other hand, the concept of civil wars I will be more open to discuss this
topic, because even nowadays there are some.
Overall, the topic of war seems very interesting. For this reason I like
to learn and reflect from it. As the quote from Napoleon Bonaparte said:
"Whoever does not know history are doomed to repeat it". This
reflective quote invites us to learn from the past to know where we want to go
in a future. Let’s continue learning about war!
