The evidence is clear: big countries can lose small wars. So, if massive use of force fails, how is a big country, believing that its interests or moral duty compel it to intervene in the affairs of a small one, to do so successfully?
历史经验明白无误地表明，大国可能输掉小战争。然则如果大规模动武无效，出于利益和道德责任而不得不出手干预小国事务的大国如何才能胜利完成任务呢？
