World at War: The Future of War | Frans Osinga
Показать описание
War and technology have always been intertwined. But our high-tech age is drastically changing the landscape and the rules of warfare.
What are the goals of today’s conflicts? And with robots, drones, hacking, etc, what would a full-scale war look like? What would set it off, and would we be ready to fight in such a war? In this lecture we address these questions and more with commodore professor Frans Osinga, who discusses modern warfare and the importance of geopolitical and technological developments.
Recorded @ NewMedia Centre, TU Delft

SG presents: the World at War series
In this series of talks, different thinkers explore the meaning of conflict in our times.
No longer a ‘great game’ of nation states declaring war, invading, and taking land, global aggression in our time takes place through trade, hacking, and proxies. Far from home, or hidden online, it remains largely unseen by us in the Netherlands. And yet ‘war’ in the sense of conflict is everywhere. Immigration, natural resource extractivism, the war on terror, the war on corona, the rise of the Chinese economy, climate change, and a multitude of cultural conflicts beg the question: what is war in the 21st century? And why do we fight?
The World at War series will be launched as pre-recorded lectures on YouTube on Tuesdays in March and May 2021. Live online discussion sessions will be organized on Tuesday evenings via VOX Delft, the open discussion platform of the TU Delft.
