It Takes More than a Network --$tNotes --$tReferences --$tIndex 330 $aIt Takes More than a Network presents a structured investigation of the Iraqi insurgency's capacity for and conduct of organizational adaptation. In particular, it answers the question of why the Iraqi insurgency was seemingly so successful between 2003 and late 2006 and yet nearly totally collapsed by 2008. The book's main argument is that the Iraqi insurgency failed to achieve longer-term organizational goals because many of its organizational strengths were also its organizational weaknesses: these characteristics abetted and then corrupted the Iraqi insurgency's ability to adapt. The book further compares the organizational adaptation of the Iraqi insurgency with the organizational adaptation of the Afghan insurgency. This is done to refine the findings of the Iraq case and to present a more robust analysis of the adaptive cycles of two large and diverse covert networked insurgencies. The book finds that the Afghan insurgency, although still ongoing, has adapted more successfully than the Iraqi insurgency because it has been better able to leverage the strengths and counter the weaknesses of its chosen organizational form. 606 $aInsurgency$zIraq 606 $aIraq War, 2003-2011 606 $aOrganizational change$zIraq 606 $aOrganizational effectiveness$zIraq 606 $aInsurgency$zAfghanistan 606 $aAfghan War, 2001-2021 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aInsurgency 615 0$aIraq War, 2003-2011. 615 0$aOrganizational change 615 0$aOrganizational effectiveness 615 0$aInsurgency 615 0$aAfghan War, 2001-2021. 676 $a956.7044/3 700 $aSerena$b Chad C$0918157 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464243103321 996 $aIt takes more than a network$92482043 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01194nam a2200289 i 4500 001 991000831249707536 005 20020509180005.0 008 970916s1987 it ||| | ita 020 $a883113065X 035 $ab1141649x-39ule_inst 035 $aPARLA216150$9ExL 040 $aDip.to Scienze dell'Antichità$bita 082 0 $a270.20924 100 1 $aPseudo-Ferrandus : Carthaginiensis$0526273 245 10$aVita di san Fulgenzio /$cPseudo-Ferrando di Cartagine ; traduzione, introduzione e note a cura di Antonino Isola 260 $aRoma :$bCittà nuova,$cc1987 300 $a136 p. ;$c21 cm 490 0 $aCollana di testi patristici ;$v65. 700 1 $aIsola, Antonio 740 0 $aVita Fulgentii 907 $a.b1141649x$b01-03-17$c01-07-02 912 $a991000831249707536 945 $aLE007 Sala A Testi Patr.
