Yet even for terrorists and smugglers, the world is not flat; states exert formidable control over the technologies of globalization, and difficult terrain poses many of the same problems today as it has throughout human history. In No Mans Land, Justin V. Hastings examines the complex relationship that illicit groups have with modern technologyand how and when geography still matters.Based on often difficult fieldwork in Southeast Asia, Hastings traces the logistics networks, command and control structures, and training programs of three distinct clandestine organizations: the terrorist group Jemaah Islamiyah, the insurgent Free Aceh Movement, and organized criminals in the form of smugglers and maritime pirates. Hastings also compares the experiences of these groups to others outside Southeast Asia, including al-Qaeda, the Tamil Tigers, and the Somali pirates. Through reportage, memoirs, government archives, interrogation documents, and interviews with people on both sides of the law, he finds that despite their differences, these organizations are constrained and shaped by territory and technology in similar ways. In remote or hostile environments, where access to the infrastructure of globalization is limited, clandestine groups must set up their own costly alternatives. Even when successful, Hastings concludes, criminal, insurgent and terrorist organizations are not nearly as mobile as pessimistic views of the sinister side of globalization might suggest....3079162No Mans Land386406https://www.gandhi.com.mx/no-mans-land-9780801468704/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3046362/8a2a783f-e5b6-449e-9068-7bebac2b7818.jpg?v=638384806716170000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20109780801468704_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_The increased ability of clandestine groups to operate with little regard for borders or geography is often taken to be one of the dark consequences of a brave new globalized world.
