Understanding the intricacies and dynamics of cyber-security, particularly its connections to conflict and international order, has never been more essential.

Crafted to resonate with a diverse audience, including undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, course instructors, policymakers, and professionals, it aims to bridge gaps and foster understanding across various backgrounds and interests.

This book examines new and challenging political aspects of cyber security and presents it as an issue defined by socio-technological uncertainty and political fragmentation.

Focuses on the role of the state in defending against cyber-threats and in securing the information age. This volume argues that too much credence is often given to the spectre of an erosion of sovereignty.
