In a war of tanks, there’s World of Tanks. Somewhere along the several hundred miles of front line in Ukraine, a Ukrainian soldier is probably playing World of Tanks — the video game. A war hero recently admitted to gaming although he had to open a new account when he lost his login information. During training in June, border guards outside Bakhmut, where one of the war’s bloodiest battles was fo

Could the war in Ukraine go nuclear?Sixty years after the Cuban missile crisis, the world again worries about nuclear war Sixty years ago the world was staring at a nuclear cataclysm. The Cuban missile crisis began in October 1962 when America detected Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba. It blockaded the island, and debated invading it. The Soviets yielded, removing their nukes; America secretly remo
How Ukraine’s counteroffensive in the north-east dramatically turned the tide of the seven-month-long invasion

The counteroffensive — revised
Know No Mercy: The Russian Cops Who Tried To Storm Kyiv By Themselves On the morning of February 25, a motley crew of specialized Russian cops found themselves choking on the acrid stench of sulfur and the metallic, sickly-sweet smell of death. They say it’s not the sights or sounds, but the smell that first traumatizes those thrust into war. The officers had known it conceptually, but now as the
現在(2022年7月)進行中のロシアによるウクライナ侵攻を伝えるニュースでも、たびたび祖国を守る女性兵士の姿が取り上げられています。また、21世紀に入り、世界中の軍隊で女性兵士は増加していますが、この現象を単純に男女平等の進展と理解して良いのでしょうか? 弊社7月刊『女性兵士という難問――ジェンダーから問う戦争・軍隊の社会学』は、極端にジェンダー化された軍隊という組織において、この20余年のあいだに起こったさまざまな変化をふまえながら、女性兵士が果たすことを求められてきた役割とその効果に着目し、検証を進めます。また、女性兵士の経験から現象を見つめることで、その男性中心性を明らかにしていきます。 今回は、著者が、戦争・軍隊を「ジェンダーから問う」意義やその難しさをストレートに綴った「はじめに」部分を公開いたします。ぜひご覧いただければ幸いです。 *** はじめにわたしが知っていることの95%
Kyiv is the ultimate prize for Russia: the heart of Ukraine, and the seat of a government it has sought to replace. For weeks, Russian troops have pressed in on the city from both sides of the Dnipro River. But the bigger the city, the more difficult it is to seize. And Kyiv is enormous — larger in land area than New York City, and five times the size of Mariupol, which Russian troops have been tr
近年日本をとりまく安全保障環境は質的な変化を遂げています。中国の軍事力増強により東アジアの軍事バランスは次第に中国に有利なものとなっており、台湾有事への懸念が現実味をもって語られるようになりました。サイバー、宇宙、電磁波といった新領域の脅威への対応も必要になっています。 従来とは次元を異にする安全保障環境において平和と安定を維持する上で何よりも優先すべきは、体系的に抑止力を見直し、再構築することではないでしょうか。にもかかわらず、抑止力をはじめとする日本の防衛に関するこれまでの議論は個別論に終始している感があります。 今日の戦略環境において安定した抑止を形成するには、日本自身のミサイル拒否力や新領域における積極防御能力の保有、戦略的コミュニケーションや軍備管理などを包括的に組み合わせることが不可決です。日本の専守防衛のあり方や日米間の「盾と矛」の役割分担について再定義が求められる面もあり、
A simulated F-16 Viper fighter jet with an artificial intelligence-driven “pilot” went undefeated in five rounds of mock air combat against an actual top Air Force fighter jockey today. The event was the culmination of an effort that the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) began last year as an adjacent project to the larger Air Combat Evolution (ACE) program, which is focused on exp
People can now be identified at a distance by their heartbeatAnd then dealt with, if they are enemy operatives BEFORE PULLING the trigger, a sniper planning to assassinate an enemy operative must be sure the right person is in the cross-hairs.
