"Subversion is now the norm, not the exception, in our information age. In this rich and complex work the author ranges widely from the philosophical understanding of 'truth' to the activities of troll factories in Russia. Now that the Great Power conflict is very much alive, Krieg's insights are particularly timely."?Christopher Coker, director, LSE IDEAS"Andreas Krieg's Subversion is a compelling and worrisome assessment of the grave dangers posed by disinformation campaigns. Krieg's key argument is that external powers are increasingly able to disrupt civil society by creating and distributing political narratives that sow discord within the body politic. Krieg's categorization of critical vulnerabilities?cognitive, infrastructural, and physical domain of the information environment?provides readers with an efficient way to structure the problem. The subsequent chapters deliver detailed assessments of the importance of each of these critical vulnerabilities."?Marc Genest, Forrest Sherman Professor of Public Diplomacy, Naval War College,
