Wikipedia
Limited war
A limited war is one in which the belligerents do not expend all of the resources at their disposal, whether human, industrial, agricultural, military, natural, technological, or otherwise in a specific conflict. This may be to preserve those resources for other purposes, or because it might be more difficult for the participants to use all of an area's resources rather than part of them. Limited war is the opposite concept to total war.

limited war
Limited war is a type of military conflict that is restricted by certain conditions such as geographical area, types of weapons used, scale of participation, or objectives sought. The parties involved aim to limit the scope of the war to prevent escalation into a full-scale or global war. These limitations may be defined by mutual agreement or imposed unilaterally. World War I and II are examples of total wars, while the Korean War and Vietnam War are examples of limited wars.
