Produktbeschreibung

In Counterterror Offensives for the Ghost War World: The Rudiments of Counterterrorism Policy, Richard J. Chasdi has written a groundbreaking quantitative analysis that provides insight into which types of counterterror practices work best and which types perform poorly in particular operational environments and circumstances. In the process, Chasdi provides essential qualitative descriptions of national security institutions, stakeholders, and processes to frame his results in ways that tie those findings to historical and contemporary political developments.
