Defence and strategic studies is intertwined largely with which one of the following ?
Answer: B
Defence and strategic studies is largely a study of the use of military power for political objectives.
The discipline grows out of Clausewitz's insight that war is the continuation of politics by other means. Strategy, in Liddell Hart's and later definitions, is the art of distributing and applying military means to fulfil the ends of policy, and strategic studies examines how states threaten or use force to achieve political goals.
The evolution of warfare and military policy in the information age are parts of the field, not its defining concern, and the use of soft and hard power for socio-economic objectives describes development or foreign policy more broadly.
