War Entrepreneurs: Economic Drivers of Insurgency, Terrorism, and Crime
Podcast: Irregular Warfare PodcastPublished On: Fri Feb 26 2021
Description: What drives illicit violence by substate groups such as terrorists, insurgents, and criminals—and how can states counter these threats? Our guests in this episode, Juan Zarate and Gary Shiffman, argue that social science provides tools to understand why illicit violence occurs. And by understanding why it occurs, states can develop targeted sanctions and military strategies that disassemble and disrupt violent nonstate groups. This approach has implications for how policymakers and practitioners can counter violent actors from the strategic to the tactical level.
