War on Paper: Clausewitz's Friction, the Unequal Dialogue and Two Synthetic Records of Emergency Civil Authority

Do Meridian's emergency questions treat uncertainty as a friction that civilians must take on: what follows for civilian authority if Clausewitz's claim that policy governs war is read together with his account of friction and uncertainty, and how do two synthetic Meridian records (a budget council extending an emergency shelter budget when some payment claims lack delivery confirmation, and a continuity committee deciding who may approve emergency spending while an elected parliament has lost its quorum) place the uncertainty between a civilian decision and its execution? The article does not judge which option either body should take.
