Description

Subversion: A Powerful New Theory and Analysis of an Age-Old Concept Lennart Maschmeyer provides a powerful new theory and analysis of subversion, exploring its strategic promise in theory and its challenges in practice. Drawing from two major cases - the KGB's use of traditional subversion methods to crush the Prague Spring in 1968 and Russia's less successful use of cyberwarfare against Ukraine since 2014 - Maschmeyer demonstrates both the benefits and weaknesses of the approach. While many believe that today's cyber-based subversion campaigns offer new strategic opportunities, they also come with their own challenges. By showing that traditional subversion methods remain the more potent threat, Subversion forces us to reconsider our fears of the subversive potential of cyberwar. This book offers a nuanced and insightful analysis of an important topic, shedding light on the complexities of subversion in both its traditional and modern forms. With 352 pages, this paperback edition provides a comprehensive exploration of subversion from covert operations to cyber conflict.
