Thanks Emil, some great ones in here. Really appreciate you taking the time.

Good question. I’m thinking mainly of academics talk about these processes.

Cheers Chris - all added to the list!

I mean, you're not wrong.

Cheers Alex, added to the list! Hopefully something to report about this line of thought in the not too distant future...

Some good ones there, thanks. I know it's a bit of a broad question, so apologies for that. I'm trying to capture those inter-related (sometimes interchangeable) concepts that speak to how war becomes varyingly possible, thinkable, necessary, legitimate, etc.
