The Misuse of Sun Tzu and the Cult of Maneuver
View through CrossRef
The theory of maneuver warfare, in the course of its development, was several times influenced by "Sun Tzu". Liddell Hart and John Boyd referred extensively to core concepts and theories claimed to come from Sun Tzu. However, these references to Sun Tzu are more of a misinterpretation or invention. This article is not a critique or endorsement of Sun Tzu, but a critique of such a phenomenon: ignoring historical context and using cases arbitrarily to serve themselves.
