About the Book

This monograph analyzes the effects of globalization on the international system as reflected in the changing nature of war. The difficulties that the United States leadership is having with creating and communicating a strategy for the Global War on Terror is indicative of inadequacies within the Westphalian Paradigm for conducting analysis and research of the international system.

Further the rise of non-state actors in the form of terrorists continues to pose an enormous threat to United States interests around the globe.
