Clausewitz and Intelligence: Some Preliminary Observations.
Anastaplo, George
Teaching Political Science, v16 n2 p77-84 Win 1989
Analyzes Carl von Clausewitz's treatment of intelligence in his treatise "On War." Shows that von Clausewitz had little regard for importance of military intelligence gathering, believing that military commander's character, intellect, and moral force had more impact on the outcome of a battle than did the information he received. Appendices include "Clausewitz on Intelligence" and "What Is Intelligence Today?" (LS)
