The first of two lectures in 2016 by Fulbright Scholars. This talk is about American Military History: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-american-way-of-war-in-history-and-politics
The recent conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan have provoked intense discussion both inside and outside the United States on the nature of a distinct 'American Way of War'.
This lecture addresses the intellectual antecedents of this term and its role in shaping both scholarly and military ideas about how the USA conducts war.
