About this title
The book’s objectives are to:
· examine the character of new terror and its ambivalent relationship to the evolving cybernetic order made possible by technology and globalization
· identify emerging trends and threats in terrorism including cyber-terrorism, eco-terrorism, bombings and CBR material
· consider the implications of these characteristics for the Asia Pacific region.
This careful examination of the key paradox facing the modern condition, namely that the freedoms of communication themselves facilitate terror cells aimed at unraveling the prevailing order, will be of great interest to academics and researchers of contemporary politics, international relations, business, and Asian studies. The lay reader will also find the book accessible.
