Recenzii
This even-handed and thoroughly researched study of subversion adds significantly to our understanding of covert cyber operations carried out by nations against adversaries. With insightful case studies of Russian invasions into Czechoslovakia in 1968 and Ukraine in 2013 and again in 2022, the book proved a highly readable and reliable examination of cyber conflict in the modern era."
In Subversion: From Covert Operations to Cyber Conflict, Lennart Maschmeyer develops a deductive theory of subversion that he skillfully applies with rich case studies to a carefully scoped set of cases and strategic outcomes. When applied to cyber operations, he helps advance understanding of cyber's utility, particularly the limits of cyber effects operations as tools of regime change or as substitutes for physical attack."
This is a genuinely important book. That's because a generation of policymakers and opinion formers have been conditioned to think of cyber capabilities both those pointed against them and their own - as immediately available, low-risk, easy-to-use tools that can deliver decisive and - if you want - deniable impact against a range of targets...Maschmeyer has done a public service with his meticulously researched and extensively evidenced debunking of such nonsense.
Lennart Maschmeyer's work effectively reflects the way in which the actors of international relations act in this social space of secrecy located at the intersection of the internal and international fields.
Lennart Maschmeyer's Subversion is good scholarship. Maschmeyer offers a theory of subversion which, through its nuanced reasoning and case study-based analysis, will advance intelligence studies' understanding of this state practice with greater precision and, potentially, guide policy consideration.
Maschmeyer's book raises so many questions for future research is a testament to its contributions in bringing order and conceptual rigor to the study of subversion. It will be a valuable resource to any scholar or practitioner who seeks to make sense of conflict short of war in the twenty-first century.
Maschmeyer's framing and analysis of subversion in general, and cyber-enabled subversion in particular, is a welcome and fascinating contribution to the literature on cyber conflict and its efficacy. In addition to the excellent cases he offers here, this book and the foundational framework it offers for understanding subversion will undoubtedly be a valuable lens though which to assess other types of cyber operations and understand the trade-offs inherent in their design for many years to come.
