Summary/Abstract: War is a phenomenon as old as mankind. The use of violence and armed forces to achieve certain outcomes is the manifestation of a cognitive process that has contributed to and benefited from discoveries in various branches of science. However, the issues related to war and the military have not developed into a distinct branch but have rather remained as fields of research within other sciences. This indicates that in essence, war can be studied scientifically and can have, by extension, scientific implications. This raises the question: why hasn’t war developed into a clearly distinguishable field of science.
