Abstract
Through investigation of Lee’s, “Warfare and Culture in World History”, Chapter 9, titled “The American Culture of War in the Age of Artificial War (Adrian Lewis), one can learn the transformation of the American culture through a military perspective. This chapter provides readers with an in depth look into the traditional culture of war and how it transforms into a more advanced, refined, futuristic culture. We learn how the psychology, sociology, beliefs, concerns, approaches, and connections to the community are all altered through the change in culture. It is explained that despite the transformations of culture and warfare styles, the country is fighting an artificial war, meaning a limited war due to the “function of culture” (Lee, 2011). This case offers an analysis into the role of American culture during transformations of the advancing technology. To properly gain understanding, a study using the Core Learning Objectives will be utilized. These objectives include: 1. Analyzing history provided in Chapter 9 from its perspective, explaining the relationship it provides on questions, issues, and positions as it relates to the areas of literature, psychology, and sociology. 2. Compare/contrast among history, literature, psychology, in terms of the central concern, values, approaches, and the connection they share with the community. 3. Synthesize diverse perspectives to achieve a multi-academic understanding. 4. Analyze the relationship among academic knowledge, professional work, and the responsibilities of both local and global citizenship. 5. Evaluate multiple viewpoints, methods of investigation and expression, and processes for decision-making in the history, literature, sociology, psychology, and politics regarding war and culture.
