A homage to the late, great scholar of war, exploring his considerable legacy and engaging with questions of conflict and strategy in the same spirit.

From the collapse of the Soviet Union and the ‘end of history’ to the rise of Islamist terrorism and the onset of the ‘war on terror’, and now finally a return to great power politics―the last thirty years have been some of the most unsettled in a generation or two. Through it all, Professor Christopher Coker’s thinking on war and strategy was among the most original and insightful. His impact on the contemporary understanding of conflict cannot be overstated.

Through his twenty-seven books, Coker’s ideas―and his captivating writing―have influenced politicians, generals and generations of scholars. This volume is an extended examination of the man and his oeuvre, written by those who worked with him, learned from him, and were intellectually inspired by him.

Leading scholars will examine the implications of emerging technology in warfare; the challenges of war in an era of terrorism; the humanitarian dimension of war; and notions of war as risk management. In a homage to Coker’s engagement with literature and philosophy, additional chapters will explore how we write about war, the role or meaning of human nature in war, and the tragic in war.

In a homage to Cokers engagement with literature and philosophy, additional chapters will explore how we write about war, the role or meaning of human nature in war, and the tragic in war.It is a testament to Christopher Cokers singular contribution to the study of war and international relations that such a stellar collection of scholars have come together to explore the continuing relevance of his work. Sir Lawrence Freedman, Emeritus Professor of War Studies, Kings College LondonChristopher Coker was an unusual, idiosyncratic scholar; his work was literary, imaginative and allusive. He contemplated questions he believed were definitive of our human condition: war, violence and strategy. In this poignant valediction to a fine scholar and a wonderful man, those colleagues who knew and loved him best explore Christophers rich and profound body of work. It is an elegy to a scholar the likes of whom we wont see again. Anthony King, Chair of War Studies, University of ExeterA realistic and candid exploration of war, strategy and the human experience of conflict, as provocative and thoughtful as Cokers work itself. Pauline Shanks Kaurin, Senior Research Associate, Case Western Reserve UniversityWith a stellar line up of scholars and a foreword by Professor Michael Cox, this edited volume packs a real punch, exploring the significance and impact of Christopher Cokers scholarship in depth, breadth and context. Matthew Ford, author of War in the Smartphone AgeThe editors have achieved something rare: a genuinely coherent book that honours Coker by thinking with him critically, seriously and at a moment when his warnings appear more relevant than ever. Kristian C. Gustafso, Reader in Intelligence and War, Centre for Intelligence and Security Studies, Brunel UniversitySometimes infuriating but always illuminating, Christopher Coker was iconoclastic, idiosyncratic and irreverent. This book is a fitting tribute to his thoughts on war and like them both inspirational and full of insights. Hew Strachan, Emeritus Fellow at All Souls College, University of Oxford, and author of Clausewitzs On War: A BiographyA valuable intervention at a time when powerful states are increasingly turning to military force as the only arrow in their statecraft quiver. Coker is a model for strategic thinkers because he was dedicated to understanding the past to avoid re-living it. Jacqueline L.
