What are the major differences between Generation 1 and Generation 2 in modern warfare? Especially focus on the efforts by political leaders in making war palatable to the, as Michael Howard described them, people whose “opinions mattered to them.” Maintaining support for war may be especially difficult for the leaders of the conventional (more powerful, established) side in a Generation 3 struggle. Why is that? (It is assumed you will make clear what is meant by Generation 3 and how it differs from Generation 2. Also, you should make reference to the three assigned readings in the Barash book)
