Sommario/riassunto

Technology and the information revolution changed the balance of power and altered and corroded the state's authority and strengthened nonstate actors, in particular, transnational crime and terrorist organizations. This book talks about the solution of at least some of the problems and invisible threats that challenge our societies and security.
