Reviews

This is an important book that sheds light on small states' use of cyber capabilities. With so much of the literature focusing on the US, Russia and China, Domingo's analysis breaks new ground and makes a compelling case that cyber capabilities have not enabled small states to better compete with more powerful rivals. It is a significant contribution to both academic and policy debates, and key reading for those interested in cyber, strategy, and the Asia Pacific. -Rory Cormac, Professor of International Relations, University of Nottingham Highly recommended. Systematic and scholarly assessment of what small states can and can't make of the cyber era. -Robert Ayson, Professor of Strategic Studies, Victoria University of Wellington Francis C. Domingo addresses a crucial and timely topic of cyber capabilities in the Asia Pacific. Unlike more conventional cybersecurity works, Domingo systematically investigates the under-explored topic of small states in the contemporary strategic environment and the place of their cyber capabilities in exercising foreign policy. The case studies of Brunei, New Zealand, and Singapore provide crucial insights into how the distribution of power in the region and a technology-oriented strategic culture shape national capability and their future use. The book is an excellent source for learning about the full spectrum of challenges small states face in foreign policy and the extent to which cyber capabilities can provide solutions in different scenarios. This book should be essential reading for anyone interested in the role of cyber capabilities in international relations and neoclassical realist conceptualization of new domains of warfare. -Viktoriya Fedorchak, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Trondheim, Norway
