This book assesses potential developments of terrorism and ways to
prevent it-the growing threats as new technologies become available
- and how the same new technologies may help trap those with
potential mal-intent. The drumbeat of terror resonates from
everywhere; how can we stop it? What are the tripping points along
the road and how can we avoid them? Increasingly more people have
access to increasingly more information and increasingly more
destructive technologies. In the meantime, increasingly advanced
technologies help us create an increasingly safer and more
harmonious world. Advantages and disadvantages are accelerating
each other. While hybrid threats are intensifying, so are the
opportunities to address them. But what are the compromises and how
can we mitigate them? This book also looks at the unexpected and
often random success and failure of policies to counter the
evolving terror threat. The various aspects of the terrorism
phenomena are presented in a unique way using scenario vignettes,
which give the reader a realistic perception of the threat. The
combination of positive and negative implications of emerging
technologies is describing what might well be one of the most
important dimensions of our common future.
