Abstract
Transformations in state violence are intimately associated with technological capacity. Like previous era-defining technologies, global digital networks have changed state violence. Offensive cyber capabilities (OCCs) appear to constitute a major technological development that offers the potential for reducing state violence. In this European Journal of International Security article, CSS' Florian Egloff and James Shires discuss if OCCs really are the better angels of our digital nature. Show more

In diesem Artikel für das European Journal of International Security diskutieren CSS Forscher Florian Egloff und James Shires, ob OCCs wirklich einen solchen positiven Effekt hervorrufen. Show more
