Вмрежување на формите на глобалниот тероризам

Abstract

This article suggests that global terrorist organizations are very rational in their behaviour and rely on network structures during their operation. Information technology creates conditions for the establishment and strengthening of network forms of organization and also realizes their comparative advantages over hierarchical forms. Today, with the development of the latest scientific and technical achievements and communication facilities, terrorists adapted to new circumstances and created a network of terrorist organizations whose organizational cells exist in all parts of the world. The purpose of this paper is to prove the hypothesis of whether the "new" terrorism is evolving towards network-warfare action or whether between the degree of activity of terrorist organizations and the degree of acceptance of network forms of organization there is a positive correlation.
