Network Wars Can Refer Literally To Wars Among Networked Groups Has The "Netwar' Era Begun? Rand's trend observers say technology products a must for today's battles.(INTERNET & TECHNOLOGY)(Q & A)
Byline: DONNA HOWELL
Struggles of the future, in both war and business, will be networked. Many already are.
If you want to win these battles, you'll have to adapt. That's the message of "Networks and Netwars," a book by Rand Corp. trend-watchers John Arquilla and David Ronfeldt.
A "netwar" is a conflict of small, dispersed groups rather than traditional forces. The groups act like points on a network, communicate fluidly and can deploy anytime, anywhere.
Fighting such enemies -- the al-Qaida terrorist network, for instance -- takes mettle. It pays to play the same game and network your own forces, Arquilla says.
He spoke with Investor's Business Daily about the netwar concept.
