The Information Revolution, the Just War doctrine, cyber warfare, drones, robots, warfare without bloodshed…these and other issues are discussed in the Atlantic.
A sampling:
How do you define information warfare?
Taddeo: The definition of “information warfare” is hotly debated.
One example would be cyber-attacks or hacker attacks, which we consider to be information warfare; another example would be the use of drones or semi-autonomous machines.
From those instances, to me, a good definition of information warfare is “the use of information communication technologies within a military strategy that is endorsed by a state.”
What’s also interesting is the reference to the existence of non-physical space such as Facebook, Twitter, blogs, etc., and that events that occur in these spaces, increasingly affect events in the physical world.
