What would likely be the future wars be fought for? What are the most important resources that will be necessary for the world of the future?
Which countries will emerge as leading due to their natural resources?

Right now it might look like China, Taiwan and the US is making ready to get in some kind of trouble with each other. On a larger scale I think information and water are most likely the resources that would be scarce and hence be the reason for wars. Some argue that food might be. I'm not to sure though. It also could be energy. But again, I do not think so.
It all depends on what scale we are talking though. I am probably talking around 20 years.
In 5 years or less food and energy might play a much larger role.
On a scale of 100 years or more, I don't think anyone can give a prediction that would be worth your time.

Will future wars be mostly automated using unmanned vehicles or will humans still have an important role on the battlefields?

Urban warfare will become even more important in the future. And this is a battlefield dominated by infantry due to their creativity, manueverability and superb ability to interact with civilians, tools and buildings.
