The first book to analyze the legacies of Remote Warfare, this study is unique in its focus on the myriad ways in which Western-pioneered strategies of war are impacting our modern world. With a focus on drones, AI, and next-generation weapons technologies, this edited collection brings together an innovative interdisciplinary group of expert policymakers, academics, humanitarians, industry leaders, and those from military institutions to discuss some of the most influential and important topics under debate in security studies, international politics, law, and international relations today. From the Global War on Terror to the Russia-Ukraine War, this book explains how the high-tech wars of the 2020s emerged and explores what the future of warfare is likely to be.
