Description

A fresh perspective on statecraft in the cyber domain challenges traditional notions of "cyber war". Instead, Robert Chesney and Max Smeets argue that cyber competition is more akin to an intelligence contest, where states and nonstate actors vie for information advantage. This reframing offers a new way to analyze and strategize about cyber events and policy. The contributors to this volume debate the logics and implications of this reframing, examining its relevance across various areas of cyber security policy and national contexts. The chapters provide a unique dialogue, highlighting areas of agreement and disagreement among leading experts and placing it in conversation with broader fields of international relations and intelligence studies. This book is a valuable resource for scholars, practitioners, and students seeking to understand statecraft in the cyber domain.
