Abstract

"Warfare in Peacetime offers an expansive and elaborated portrait of overseas proxy wars. The structure and substance will prepare observers, analysts, and participants seeking to understand challenges before American and other statesmen. The work helps frame the morass in Syria, with all its foreign links; the contest for influence in Libya, where innumerable hands vie for dominance; the fighting in Yemen, where Houthi Shia organizations backed by Iranian sponsors battle Sunni tribes; and life along the borders of Russian expansionism, where Ukrainians plea for outside assistance, including weapons from Washington. Such ongoing "warfare in peacetime" has a thousand precedents in a dozen ages, including our day, and some of the patterns are explored along with detailed case studies"--

Abstract

This book examines how terrorists and armed groups have used communications techniques with varying degrees of success : radio, newspapers, voice and song, television, books, e-magazines, advertising, the internet, and social media. Armed groups engaging in terrorism have always relied on media to motivate supporters and frighten opponents, and they have proven adept at adapting to new communications technologies while retaining useful techniques from the past. Here, the authors trace how armed groups and terrorists around the globe have honed their broadcasts for maximum impact on those from whom they seek support and on the official state organs they hope to overthrow. While sometimes crude, the messages and the techniques can also be highly refined - carefully crafted appeals to intellect or emotion, embracing the latest forms of communications technology. This book helps shed light on the myriad ways terrorist propaganda has become such an effective tool in the digital age.
