Who made the statement “war is the continuation of politics by other means” ?
Karl Von Clausewitz
The idea that war serves political ends is the central theme of On War (Vom Kriege), the unfinished treatise of the Prussian general and theorist Carl von Clausewitz (1780–1831), published by his widow in 1832.
In Book One Clausewitz wrote that war is not merely an act of policy but a true political instrument, a continuation of political intercourse carried on with other means. The statement means that military action must always be subordinate to political purpose, and it is the most quoted line in strategic thought.
Mary Kaldor is known for the idea of ‘new wars’, fought by networks of state and non-state actors in the age of globalisation. David Kilcullen writes on counter-insurgency and ‘the accidental guerrilla’. Michael Walzer is the author of Just and Unjust Wars, a work on the ethics of war. None of them made this statement.
Karl Von Clausewitz option is correct.
