Definiranje Konceptov Na Primeru Vojaške Strategije

Abstract

Povzetek Koncepti ali pojmi kot miselni konstrukti realnega sveta so temeljni sestavni elementi teorij, v katerih so prisotni skozi svoje definicije. Bolj enoznačno in jasno so definirani, bolj nedvoumne so komunikacija med znanstveniki in raziskovalci, opredelitev oziroma zamejitev področja raziskovanja ter konceptualizacija oziroma razčlenitev teoretskega pojma ali koncepta. V prispevku smo tako definiranje koncepta izvedli na primeru vojaške strategije. Metodološki okvir za definiranje koncepta vojaške strategije temelji na Sartorijevi metodi analiziranja konceptov in Goertzevi metodi dodajanja oziroma odvzemanja pridevnikov konceptu. Z analitičnim pristopom razvitja definicije vojaške strategije smo spoznali, da lahko tudi v vojaškem slovenskem pomenoslovju bistveno pripomoremo k omejitvi tako količinske kot tudi kakovostne raznolikosti vojaških terminov, ki se pogostokrat brez jasne konotacije pojavljajo in uporabljajo v strokovnih in znanstvenih delih. Empirični koncept je lahko tudi dobro izhodišče za nadaljnje razmišljanje o smotrnosti pristopa k morebitnemu oblikovanju vojaške strategije v slovenskem prostoru. Ključne besede: koncept, strategija, vojaška strategija. Abstract Concepts as mental constructs of the real world are the fundamental components of theories where they are present through their definitions. The more the concepts are unambiguously and clearly defined, the more explicit are the communication between scientists and researchers, the definition or limitation of the object of research, and the conceptualization or analysis of the theoretical concept. In the article, we used the concept definition in the case of a military strategy. The methodological framework for defining the concept of a military strategy is based on Sartori's method of concept analysis and Goertz’s method of attaching or removing adjectives to and from the concept. With the analytical approach to the development of the definition of a military strategy, we found that in the Slovenian military semantics, too, we can significantly contribute to the limitation of both quantitative and qualitative diversity of military terms, which often appear and are used in professional and scientific works without clear connotations. The empirical concept can also serve as a good starting point for further reflection on the rationality of the approach to the possible formation of a military strategy in the Republic of Slovenia. Key words: Concept, strategy, military strategy.
