War is one of many ways humanity has thought out to decide conflicts which, for one reason or another, are not to be resolved by a rational discussion. In this contribution, I want to present some possible alternative options to real, i.e. large scale and lethal, war: playing war, playing a game and duel by representatives. These options will be evaluated according to four criteria, i.e. (1) their potential for representing real war, (2) their feasibility, (3) their degree of humanity and (4) their fairness.
