The boundary phenomenon of war
摘要
Boundaries and the formation of borders are a universal phenomenon; without them, structured matter could not exist at all. Boundaries also reveal themselves as sites of energetic dynamism between neighbouring systems. It is also possible to consider wars or organised conflicts resolved through violence from this perspective. The nations that trigger wars, or the winners and losers, play no role in the evolving process of war. What matters is only the structural dynamism set in motion by wars.
