Known as the Information-Technology Revolution in Military Affairs (IT-RMA), this innovation served as an intellectual foundation for the US defence transformation from the 1990s onwards. Since the mid-1990s, professional ideas generated within the American defence milieu have been further disseminated to military communities across the globe, with huge impact on the conduct of warfare. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith chapters written by leading scholars in this field, this work sheds light on RMAs in general and the IT-RMA in the US, in particular. The authors analyse how military practice and doctrines were developed on the basis of the IT-RMA ideas, how they were disseminated, and the implications of them in several countries and conflicts around the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of much interest to students of strategic studies, defence studies, war and technology, and security studies in general.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54239210144088,"sku":"9780415523363","price":204.6,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780415523363.jpg?v=1769031928","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/contemporary-military-innovation-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
