Class - In Person Only | Available (Membership Required)
Large militaries may not be entirely obsolete, but their role in modern warfare is evolving.

However, are they evolving to meet the dynamic changes that seem to be accelerating? This discussion will cover the importance of deterrence, old and new warfare strategies, the shifting nature of conflict, technological advances, and how modern militaries are adapting to change.
