Terror and Consent: The Wars for the Twenty-first Century (repost)

Philip Bobbitt, "Terror and Consent: The Wars for the Twenty-first Century"
ISBN: 1400042437 | 2008 | EPUB/MOBI | 688 pages | 2 MB/2 MB

Philip Bobbitt follows his magisterial Shield of Achilles with an equally provocative analysis of the West's struggle against terror. Boldly stating that the primary driver of terrorism is not Islam but the emergence of market states (like the U.S. and the E.U.), Bobbitt warns of an era where weapons of mass destruction will be commodified and the wealthiest societies even more vulnerable to destabilizing, demoralizing terror. Unflinching in his analysis, Bobbitt addresses the deepest themes of history, law and strategy.
