Document Summary
Sovereignty = ability of state to go to war. War is the continuation of politics by other means . States launch wars in the attempt to achieve goals / states try to meet political goals so war is the best option to pursue them. Strategy is the matching of means and ends of deciding what you want to do and how you do it. No plan survive first contact with the enemy - helmuth von molike. States improve their position by thinking about future risks and the present.
