• Shashank Joshi evaluates the challenge of maintaining meaningful human control in decision-making as the role of artificial intelligence on the battlefield advances
• Matthew F. Cancian explores how the principle of ‘denial over weeks’ could save the United States from a prolonged and unwinnable war over Taiwan
• Dana H. Allin and Christopher S. Chivvis assess the impact of the early moves of Donald Trump’s second administration on the relationship between Europe and the United States
• And nine other thought-provoking pieces, as well as our regular Book Reviews and Noteworthy column
