Abstract

How can we think about modes of martial operability that are responsive to the transformative conditions engendered by the information age? This article assumes an exploratory stance and reconsiders the theory of network-centric warfare (NCW) in concert with some elements of Gilbert Simondon’s work. It suggests that the Simondonian concepts of individuation, transduction and information, coupled with his understanding of technical objects, help us shift our focus from the platform-centric to the network-centric, thus enabling us to reengage with the theory of NCW in a manner that is responsive to the information age.

技术狂喜：网络中心战

我们该如何考虑对信息时代所产生的变革条件作出反应的军事行动模式?本文采取了一种探索性的立场，并结合吉尔伯特·西蒙顿(Gilbert Simondon)作品中的一些元素，对网络中心战(NCW)理论进行了重新思考。这表明，西蒙多尼的个性化、转导和信息概念，加上他对技术对象的理解，帮助我们将焦点从以平台为中心转移到以网络为中心，从而使我们能够以一种响应信息时代的方式重新参与NCW理论。
