Today's militaries are increasingly reliant on highly networked autonomous systems, artificial intelligence and advanced weapons that were previously the domain of science fiction writers. In a world where these complex technologies clash with escalating international tensions, what can we do to decrease the chances of war? In "Future Peace", the eagerly awaited sequel to "Future War", Robert H. Latiff questions our overreliance on technology and examines the pressure-cooker scenario created by the growing animosity beteween the United States and its adversaries, our globally deployed and thinly stretched military, the capacity for advanced technology to catalyze violence, and the American public's lack of familiarity with these topics. "Future Peace" describes the many provocations to violence and how technologies are abetting those urges, and it explores what can be done to mitigate not only dangerous human behaviors but also dangerous technical behaviors. latiff concludes that peace is possible but will require intense, cooperative efforts on the part of technologists, military leaders, diplomats, politicians, and citizens. "Future Peace" amplifies some well-known ideas about how to address the issues, and provides far-, mid-, and short-term recommendations for actions tahat are necessary to reverse the apparent headlong rush into conflict. This compelling and timely book will captivae general readers, students, and scholars of global affairs, internaational security, arms control, and military ethics. 648 7 2000-2099|2fast 650 0 Civilization, Modern|y21st century. 650 0 World politics|y21st century. 650 0 Evolutionary psychology|y21st century. 650 0 Social evolution|y21st century. 650 0 Peace|y21st century. 650 0 Disarmament|y21st century. 650 0 Military art and science|xMoral and ethical aspects|y21st century. 650 0 War|xForecasting|y21st century. 650 0 War|xMoral and ethical aspects|y21st century. 650 0 Violence|zUnited States|xHistory|y21st century. 650 0 Violence|xSocial aspects. 650 7 Disarmament.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00894688 650 7 Evolutionary psychology.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00917348 650 7 Peace.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01055758 650 7 Social evolution.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01122456 650 7 Violence.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01167224 650 7 Violence|xSocial aspects.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01167262 650 7 War|xForecasting.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01170341 650 7 War|xMoral and ethical aspects.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01170352 650 7 World politics.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01181381 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 994 C0|bCKE
