The Prussian military thinker Carl von Clausewitz
is widely acknowledged as the most important of the classical strategic thinkers.
Even though he's been dead for nearly two centuries, he remains a powerful living influence: the
most frequently cited, the most controversial, and in many respects the
most modern of strategic theorists. This website is intended as a central source for information,
articles, and arguments about the man and his ideas. It is designed to
accommodate anyone interested in understanding human strategies, including
not only scholarly researchers on Clausewitz but also students and faculty
in professional military education (PME) institutions, business schools,
and other organizations concerned with human competition and conflict.
