De Gruyter Handbook of Drone Warfare by James Patton Rogers Hardcover Book

Description: De Gruyter Handbook of Drone Warfare by James Patton Rogers Until recently the common wisdom was that drone warfare had peaked under the Obama administration, yet little consideration was given to the spread of these disruptive technologies. The De Gruyter Handbook of Drone Warfare brings together the world FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In 2010, 60 states had a military drone program. Today at least 113 countries and 65 non-state actors now have access to weaponized drone technologies. Alongside this, established drone powers – the U.S., China, Turkey, and Iran – have expanded their own use of military drones, increasing the sale and deployment of drones around the world. In the De Gruyter Handbook of Drone Warfare, drone expert, policy adviser, and historian, Dr James Patton Rogers, brings together 37 of the worlds leading voices on the growing issues of commercial and military drone technologies. From the origins of military drones in the early 1900s and the resurgence of drone use during the War on Terror, through to the global proliferation of drones across Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, this handbook explores the moral, ethical, technological, legal, military, geopolitical, social, and strategic issues at the heart of drone warfare. The first handbook of its kind, the volume also addresses Russias offensive war against Ukraine, the rise of Iranian and Houthi drones, and provides a focused analysis of the future of drone warfare and the opportunities and perils of AI, autonomy, and swarming technologies in the coming Third Drone Age.
