Hi Zach,

I taught a similar course in 2015, but the syllabus would need some pretty big revisions. Here are some (largely US-centric) places I’d start:

Books
- Cohen, Configuring the Networked Self<http://juliecohen.com/configuring-the-networked-self/> (and her upcoming book)
- Kaplan, Dark Territory: The Secret History of Cyber War
- Healey (ed), A Fierce Domain: Conflict in Cyberspace, 1986 to 2012
- Singer & Friedman, Cybersecurity and Cyberwar: What Everyone Needs to Know
- Gillespie, Wired Shut
- Coleman, Hacker, Hoaxer, Whistleblower, Spy

Articles
- Lawson, Beyond cyber-doom: Assessing the limits of hypothetical scenarios in the framing of cyber-threats
- Schulte, The WarGames Scenario
- Hart & Feenberg, The insecurity of innovation: A critical analysis of cybersecurity in the United States
- Hansen & Nissenbaum, Digital disaster, cyber security, and the Copenhagen school
- Lacy & Prince, Securitization and the global politics of cybersecurity

Best,
Nate

Subject:  [Air-L] Cyber-Security syllabus or textbook?

Hello everyone,

I was wondering whether anyone on this list has a recommendation for a
cyber-security textbook (or syllabus) centered around policy or case
studies. This fall, I will be teaching a new graduate course titled Public
Policy of Cyber-Security, aimed at political science students. I’ll be
taking a wide view of cyber security (looking at nation states but also the
IoT and platforms), and ideally would like to focus on normative issues
that are interesting to think about. If anyone has taught a similar course,
I’d really love to hear your recommendations.

Thanks
Zach
