Today' s world is in flux. Competition between the great powers is back on the agenda and governments around the world are turning to secret statecraft and the hidden hand to navigate these uncertain waters. From poisonings to electoral interference, disinformation to cyber sabotage, states increasingly operate in the shadows, while social media has created new avenues for disinformation on a mass scale. This is covert action: perhaps the most sensitive - and controversial - of all state activity. However, for all its supposed secrecy, it has become surprisingly prominent - and spawned much debate about how to respond. In an enthralling narrative packed with real-world examples, Rory Cormac reveals how such activity is shaping the world and argues that understanding why and how states wield these dark arts has never been more important.
An engrossing journey through the history of a stubbornly opaque area of the secret world. * BBC History Magazine on DISRUPT AND DENY * Revelatory and meticulously researched. * Times Literary Supplement on DISRUPT AND DENY * An enthralling, well-written and authoritative history of Britain' s role in covert operations. * International Affairs on DISRUPT AND DENY * Rich and controversial. * Intelligence and National Security on DISRUPT AND DENY *
Rory Cormac is a Professor of International Relations specializing in Secret Intelligence and Covert Action at the University of Nottingham. He is the author of Disrupt and Deny and co-author, with Richard J. Aldrich, of The Black Door and The Secret Royals.
