War Stories from the Future

War Stories from the Future

August Cole
3.1/5 ( ratings)
“The authors in this anthology invite us to shed the shackles that bind us to our current constructs and instead imagine things as they might be, for better or for worse.”
- Martin Dempsey, foreword to War Stories from the Future


War Stories from the Future is the culmination of the Atlantic Council Art of Future Warfare project’s first year exploring the future of armed and social conflict.

Featuring a foreword by Martin Dempsey, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the collection features new science fiction stories, as well as the project’s contest-winning short-story writers and visual artists.

The anthology explores many of the most important looming issues in defense and security, but in a way that no white paper or policy brief can.

To do so, the project commissioned established writers such as Ken Liu and Madeline Ashby , Jamie Metzl , Mathew Burrows , and project Director August Cole, who edited the collection . The collection also features two stories from best-selling science-fiction writer David Brin and Linda Nagata .

Crowd sourcing is a cornerstone of the project’s goal of bringing in new voices. The anthology includes contest-winning stories from Alec Meden , Nikolas Katsimpras , and Ashley Henley . Visual artists EG Douglas and Sam Cole and Alex Brady also feature in the collection.

The Atlantic Council’s Art of Future Warfare project is driven by the Brent Scowcroft Center on International Security’s mandate to advance thinking and planning for the future of warfare. The project’s core mission is to cultivate a community of interest in works and ideas arising from the intersection of creativity and expectations about how emerging antagonists, disruptive technologies, and novel warfighting concepts will shape tomorrow’s conflicts.
