Volume 9, No. 16Rethinking Warfare: The Contemporaneity of the Classics

Published 3 July 2025

Issue description

The characteristics of current wars, combining elements of conventional warfare with irregular tactics, non-state actors, high-intensity urban combat, drones, and cyberattacks, together with the increasingly widespread use of diffuse and high-impact disinformation on social media, have brought unprecedented complexity and interdisciplinarity to the study of conflicts. As a result, the texts selected for this thematic dossier, which constitutes the sixteenth edition of Hoplos Magazine, are dedicated to reflecting on war and its means in the contexts most relevant to today's reality.
