About This Item
Toronto: Viking, 2000 Book. New. Hardcover. 1st Canadian Edition.. "In May 1999, in the vast tent city that sprang up overnight under the Macedonian skies, one desperate request was not for food or water but for cellular phones - to find children, husbands, parents missing in the chaos of Kosovo. From phones to laser-guided missiles, this was war at the end of the twentieth century, where technology rules... ''Virtual War' describes the latest phase in modern combat: war fought by remote control. Kosovo was such a virtual war, a war in which US and NATO forces did the fighting but only Kosovars and Serbs did the dying. Ignatieff raises the troubling possibility that virtual wars, so much easier to fight, could become the way superpowers impose their will in the century ahead'" 249p. bibliography, index.
