abstract="The war in Chechnya continues. The rebels, who are the weaker side, are fighting a guerilla campaign and using asymmetrical forms of combat. These include both the most up-to-date military knowhow and suicide bombings. The aim of this strategy is to impose a war of attrition on the enemy. Asymmetrical warfare is escalating on both sides. One can observe the mediatization of the conflict. The result of this is that public opinion has become accustomed to the war, and on the ground the war is becoming increasingly brutal and being prolonged even further.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
