Geography, globalization, and terrorism : the plots of Jemaah Islamiyah/ Justin V. Hastings. - 2008
This article argues the technologies of globalization such as cheap transportation and telecommunications do not in many circumstances liberate terrorist groups to attack throughout the world or necessarily grant them more power vis-a-vis states. To illustrate the argument it traces how the Southeast Asia terrorist group Jemaah Islamiah (JI) planned two plots in 2000 and 2001, the Christmas Eve 2000 bombings in Indonesia which succeeded and the Singapore plots 2001 which failed.
