The Rise of Leaderless Resistance in the Cold War

Terrorist groups have become much more cell based, amorphous individual adhoc self generating individuals carrying out terrarist attacks. This radical decentralization is enabled by things like sel phones and social media but it's also an effect of the way we crushed these terrorist groups after nine 11. We've also seen the emergence of guerilla terrorism, where people are reaching in with social media and growing guerilla terrorist teams close to the target. And then the final thing i think that's worth pointing out is this idea of leaderless resistance, which is an idea that actually comes out of the right races world in the united states in the 19 eighties.
