摘要

我们生活在一个数字世界。这一事实对战争有重大影响。尤其是网络和无人机这两项技术，在军事和情报行动以及学术领域发挥了重要作用。此外，一种新的学术流派正在研究人工智能的进步如何有可能塑造未来的战争。虽然学者们对这些技术对国际政治的影响意见不一，但他们倾向于认为，它们的影响是由军事组织(无论是国家还是非国家行为体)在相关军事场景中有效使用这些技术并追求政治目的的能力所调节的。与已有几十年历史的技术相比，研究较新的军事技术所获得的经验证据较少，这也给研究带来了方法论上的挑战。

Do Emerging Military Technologies Matter for International Politics?

We live in a digital world. This fact has significant consequences for warfare. Two technologies in particular, cyber and drones, feature in military and intelligence operations and in scholarship. In addition, a new vein of scholarship is examining how advances in artificial intelligence have the potential to shape the future of warfare. While scholars disagree about the consequences of these technologies for international politics, they tend to agree that their consequences are mediated by the ability of military organizations, whether state or nonstate actors, to use them effectively in relevant military scenarios and in the pursuit of political ends. Studying newer military technologies, with less empirical evidence than is available for technologies that have been around for decades, also generates methodological challenges for research.
