Clausewitz’s theory of war can be divided between the theory of conduct of war and the theory of preparations for war, and the theory of war that Clausewitz means, is the theory of conduct of war. But before Clausewitz, men regarded a theory of preparations for war as the theory of war. The theory of preparations for war concerns generally about the material side of war, but not its spiritual aspect. The activity of war is basically a human spiritual and psychological action. And because the war is dangerous, the anxiety occurs and diverse human feelings, for example courage, have been required. Also the informations in war is normally very uncertain, so an insight of the commander is in war very needed. The Theory of war has to consider this spiritual aspect. To end the war and to acquire the peace, an excellent talent of commander is necessary. And it is a genius. Men who are difficult to move but have strong feelings, these are the men who are best able to be a genius.

The main theme of this study is about North Korea's contemporary military strategy which remained a blind spot in the 21st century. Indeed, Pyongyang's contemporary military strategy is evolved from the logic of War. On the basis of this logic, this study examined North Korea's contemporary military strategy with three analytical frameworks. The first is the discovery of Clausewitz's dictums and application of the Trinitarian analysis on the Korean cases. During the course of applying Clausewitzian main dictum--War as continuation of politics, the methodological analysis on war played a important role generalizing the pattern and matrix of North Korea's strategic thinking and military strategy. In particular, Clausewitz's Trinitarian framework on war -Government (reason), Army (chance), People (passion)- was a universal framework to scrutinize the North Korean missile and nuclear strategy. The second is about the matrix of North Korea's military strategy, The study suggested the genealogical feature of Pyongyang's military strategy. In principle, the dictum of 'Military-First Politics' 1S the combination of the political philosophy, Chuch'e (self-reliance) of Kim Il Sung and Kin Jong Il reflected in the military readiness. As a result this analysis was able to equate Clausewitz's dictums to explain Pyongyang's idea of the nature of war in that North Korea's military strategy is the central instrument of delivery to achieve political objectives. The third is about the theoretical encounter of 'Clausewitz's Wonderful Trinity' and 'Remarkable Trinity on North Korea's contemporary strategy'. On the basis, three elements are connected to one of three groups in society; the people, the military, and the government. In order to apply the Clausewitz's Trinitarian analysis into Kim Jong Il's 'Military-First' strategy, two case studies (Missile and Nuclear strategy) were examined. The finding of this study is that Clausewitzian dictum in the 19th century is still valid in the 21st century as it provided plausible theoretical framework to explain the North Korean contemporary military strategy with a reminder that the nature and logic of war are fixed in the socially constructed state.

클라우제비츠의 삼위일체론은 전쟁이론가들의 전쟁사와 전략 분석이론으로 자주 사용된다. 사이버공간 전쟁에 관한 현재까지의 연구는 법률, 정책, 조직구성, 인력 및 훈련 방법 등 사이버공간 전쟁의 대비 위주로 연구가 이루어졌다고 할 수 있다. 상대적으로 사이버공간 전쟁의 특성을 이해하고 재래식 전쟁과 어떻게 다르며, 어떻게 분석해야 하는가에 관한 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 클라우제비츠의 삼위일체론 관점에서 전쟁의 본질을 지성(Intellect) 용기(Bravery) 격정(Passion) 영역 중심으로 분석하여 공간적 시간적 제약 조건 아래에서 사이버공간의 속성과 특징에 맞도록 보완하여 사이버공간 전쟁 해석모델을 설계하였다. 또한, 해석모델을 과거 이라크전 사례에 적용하여 사이버전이 전쟁 승리에 긍정적인 영향을 주었음을 이론적으로 제시한다.

Clausewitz's On War is a very difficult classic. Because its manuscript was not completed by him, and the Korean translations are hard to understand. Seven Korean translations of the twelve, all of the Korean translations of On War, are the plagiarisms or very alike to the former translations. It remains only five translations, to that is worth reading. Even the five are composed of Korean, difficult to understand. Because they are full of japanese and chinese terms, the sentence structures too long and complex, and many of terms too 'military'. Now is the time to translate the book new, that is understandable with easy and simple terms and short sentences.

This year I published a Korean translation of On War in three volumes, written by Prussian general Carl von Clausewitz. I believe it is the first unabridged Korean translation from the original German text, Vom Kriege. It is true that the work has been translated into Korean several times, but some translations have been done from English or Japanese versions, while others are abridged ones. It is not easy to make a good translation of On War, partly because the book is actually an unfinished work, and partly because it contains almost all academic subjects in social sciences. Moreover, two aspects of the dialectical logic in the book make it more difficult to understand. One is inductive reasoning, the other is deductive explanation. The former is to 'ascend' to draw principles and generalizations from empirical experience, the latter is to 'descend' to describe and explain given principles, often by concrete examples. Considering these difficulties, if we want to have better translations than existing ones, there should be substantial commentaries which contain not only history of wars, but also biographies and geographies concerned. I hope that On War can be taught and studied in many universities, for it will make it easier to produce reliable commentaries.

Sun Tzu once clarified that "One who knows the enemy and knows himself will not be endangered in a hundred engagements, " while Clausewitz explained that "A victory will be guaranteed for one who can overcome 'fog and friction' at a battlefield." Now the U.S. is striving hard to develop an American version of RMA (Revolution in Military Affairs)/MTR (Military Technical Revolution) by utilizing its rapidly emerging information technology in the information age. The U.S. firmly believes that its RMA/MTR with less defense expenditure can provide all combat players in the battlespace with "dominant battle awareness, " by which no nation will be able to challenge U.S. military superiority. In this paper, the recent efforts of the U.S. Armed Forces on RMA/MTR will be briefly introduced, some lessons and expertises from the U.S. RMA/MTR are extracted, and, in this regard, several suggestions are provided for the progress of the ROK Armed Forces.gress of the ROK Armed Forces.

이 논문은 프랑스 포슈 장군의 군사사상을 분석·규명하여 현실전의 최선방책을 제시하기 위한 것이다. 1. 포슈의 생애: 보불전쟁 패전으로 프랑스 명예회복을 인생목표로 삼아 군문에 들어선 후 육군대학 교수로서 실전의 지휘관으로서 1차대전의 연합군총사령관으로서 필승의 정신전력을 강조하며 대전을 승리로 종결짓는데 공헌하였다. 2. 포슈 활동기의 시대적 배경: 나폴레옹 실각이후 야기된 일련의 혁명은 유럽에 파급되어 근대국민국가 탄생을 위한 독립 및 통일전쟁의 격화와 해외식민지쟁탈전 심화를 초래하여 포슈 활동기의 유럽은 전 분야가 총체적인 위기일발의 상황이었다. 3. 포슈의 군사사상: 클라우제비츠의 전쟁론 심층연구를 통하여 기술존중과 전승을 위한 공격적 전투수행의지가 담긴 정신전력의 절대 중요성을 강조한다. 4. 포슈 사상의 현대적 함의 : 전투정신이 실추된 군대에게 필승의 정신전력의 중요성을 각인시키는 것은 전장에서 대단히 중요한 일이고 높이 평가되어야 한다. 5. 결론 : 정신전력 등 무형전력의 중요성을 강조하는 포슈의 군사사상은 높이 평가하여 현대전은 필승의 정신전력과 최신의 정예무기활용의 균형적 조합이 최선의 결과를 초래한다는 교훈이 간과되어서는 안 된다.

The purpose of this study is to find out a significant influence of continental strategy theories on the development of maritime strategy theories. For this purpose, I examined similar and different parts of each theories and their implications when applied to different environment. In details, Chapter 2 deals with how continental strategy and maritime strategy theories are similar and different in general. In Chapter 3, I look into how Karl Clausewitz's theory that has been quoted the most by military strategy theorists had influenced over the theory of Julian Corbett, one of the representative English maritime strategy theorists. In Chapter 4, I study how the theory of Alfred Mahan that has also been quoted the most among the theories of maritime strategy had been influenced by Antoine-Henri Jomini's theory. And in Chapter 5, their contemporary implications and conclusions are drawn. According to my findings, unbelievably, the theories of maritime strategy had been influenced by existing continental strategy theories very much. Many similarities are found between them. However, at the same time, a large part of them is found significantly different from original ones especially when used to reflect the maritime distinctiveness. This means that the past maritime strategy theories and stored experience also wield influence, in many ways, yielding out much better ones in terms of applicability to changing environment. Therefore, devising new strategies with creative attitude using knowledges and experiences from both other fields and past ones is the virtue required for maritime strategists.

이 글은 조선 후기에 편찬된 대표적 병서와 지식인들의 논의를 중심으로 병학사상을 살펴본 것이다. 조선은 개국 이래 200여년의 태평성대를 구가하다가 양대 전란(戰亂)을 거치면서 지식인들을 중심으로 조선 병학의 한계를 각성하였다. 유성룡(柳成龍)의 "징비록(懲毖錄)"에 반영된 왜적(倭賊)에 대한 대비책과 전란의 경험은 후기 병학 사상의 토대가 되었다고 평할 수 있을 것이다. 그러나 안타깝게도 선초의 병서에는 이에 대한 대비책이 별도로 제시된 일이 없었다. 한편 선초의 진법(陣法) 논쟁과 마찬가지로 후기 병학의 정립과정은 순탄하지 못하였다. 임란 직후 명(明)나라 군대를 통해서 척계광의 "기효신서(紀效新書)"와 "연병실기(練兵實紀)"가 유입되었는데, 처음에는 원본 내지는 초록본의 형태로 군사훈련에 활용되다가 후에 "병학지남(兵學指南")"과 "연병지남(練兵指南)"으로서 출간되었다. 이 책들은 중국에서와 마찬가지로 우리나라에서도 왜구와 북방 오랑캐를 대응하는 데 있어서 상당한 효과를 거두었다. 그러나 선초 이래의 오위진법과 상충되기도 하고 중국과 우리나라의 지형이 차이가 있으므로 획일적으로 적용할 수 없다는 지적이 제기되었다. 영조(英朝) 정조(正祖) 때에는 "속병장도설(續兵將圖說)", "병학통(兵學通)", "병학지남연의(兵學指南演義)", "무예도보통지(武藝圖譜通志)" 등 조선 후기의 대표적 병서를 출간함으로써 군사훈련의 통일성을 기하고자 하였다. 정조는 당시 논쟁에 대해 적극적으로 참여하여 해명하였으며, 이로써 선조 때부터 200여년 지속된 논쟁은 종료되었다. 조선 전기와 후기의 병학적 특징을 개괄하자면, 선초에는 "무경칠서(武經七書)"를 바탕으로 문신(文臣)의 주도하에 병학의 윤리화(倫理化)가 진행되었다면, 후기에는 "기효신서"가 계기가 되고 상대적으로 다수의 武臣이 논쟁에 참여하면서 병학의 실학화(實學化)가 진행되었다고 할 수 있다. 한편 조선 병학의 정립 과정에서 주도적 역할을 한 것은 세조(世祖)와 정조(正祖)인데, 양자는 모두 왕위계승 과정이 순조롭지 못했다는 공통점을 지니고 있다. 이것은 클라우제비츠의 "전쟁은 정치 행위의 연속이다"라는 명제가 생각나는 대목이다.
