ABSTRACT
This chapter considers how war was re-theorized in the 1990s. In addition to the academic discussion of how the reporting of war had changed, there emerged a series of reflections on the nature of warfare itself. In response to both the Gulf War and Kosovo Wars, thinkers such as Jean Baudrillard, Paul Virilio, Alvin and Heidi Toffler, Chris Hables Gray, Michael Ignatieff and James Der Derian took the opportunity to re-theorize conflict, developing important new analyses of the new forms of warfare and their implications for their western audiences.
