21- The Philippine Insurgency and the Boxer Rebellion

What this episode covers

In this episode I talk with Professor David Silbey about the strategic rationale behind the Spanish American War, the Philippine Insurgency and the anti-guerrilla tactics the army honed on the frontier against Native Americans to fight the insurgency, and the boxer Rebellion in China. We discuss how the Boxer Rebellion echoes in Chinese policy towards the world today and dive into some of the strategic calculus that the Chinese government and military may be making today, and why they feel they need a navy and zone of influence. Tune in for a fascinating discussion.
