“This is an excellent, wide-ranging account of thinking about war in the 
context of new forms of capitalism, providing original analysis of the 
global dimensions of contemporary war while reflecting on the heritage 
of sociological theory. It will lead to a rethinking of priorities in 
social theory.”
— Sylvia Walby, Professor, Department of Law and Criminology, School of 
Law and Social Sciences, Royal Holloway, University of London
