Summary/Abstract |
This article views China's development of anti-access capabilities against the backdrop of the theory and history of military innovation. It begins with a discussion of the process of military innovation, as well as the indicators that may appear at different stages of that process. It then discusses the barriers to recognizing new ways of war and applies that framework to China's development of advanced ballistic missiles, to include precision-guided conventional ballistic missiles and anti-ship ballistic missiles (ASBMs). It concludes with several suggestions for how to improve the ability to recognize and understand foreign military innovation.

Summary/Abstract |
This article introduces political scientists to scenarios-future counterfactuals-and demonstrates their value in tandem with other methodologies and across a wide range of research questions. The authors describe best practices regarding the scenario method and argue that scenarios contribute to theory building and development, identifying new hypotheses, analyzing data-poor research topics, articulating "world views," setting new research agendas, avoiding cognitive biases, and teaching. The article also establishes the low rate at which scenarios are used in the international relations subfield and situates scenarios in the broader context of political science methods. The conclusion offers two detailed examples of the effective use of scenarios.

Summary/Abstract |
A central challenge of the military profession revolves around how best to understand future wars and the strategies needed to fight them. Colin S. Gray grappled with this matter throughout his long and productive career. His work offers antidotes to strategic faddism and technology fetishization that often characterize discussions of war and peace. Although Gray is no longer with us, his takes on the future of war and strategy are worth revisiting now more than ever. A world increasingly defined by U.S.-China competition, a meddlesome Russia, belligerent regional powers like North Korea, and the growth and spread of new ways of war demands careful thinking about the future of armed conflict. His work can help guide scholars and practitioners through the fog of such contested peace.
