[Air-l] Request for Resources: The Internet and Warfare

[jeremy hunsinger]

here are some possible books
James Der Derian  "Virtuous War"  and 
http://www.watsoninstitute.org/project_detail.cfm?id=1
Manuel De Landa "War in the Age of Intelligent Machines"
Arquila, Networks and Netwars: The Future of Terror, Crime, and 
Militancy
and Megan Boler a colleague of mine from VT, now at OISE produced this 
http://www.tandl.vt.edu/Foundations/mediaproject/home.htm
and then there is http://www.cddc.vt.edu/host/lnc/  which has a 
listserv that frequently deals with the discourses of war in new 
capitalism

The Network Centric Warfare group is still around too(though it may 
have been renamed),  but if you really want to see the discourse of war 
in a networked environment see the darpa project descriptions since 
1998.  It's a paper I've been meaning to write, but it's been tabled.

as for the gentleman you refer to, i'd refer you to the list archives
