Week 11: How Control Exists After Decentralization

Alexander Galloway and Eugene Thacker, The Exploit, All Pages Posted.

This week will introduce students to Network Theory. In short how it is that
decentralized organizations and loosely connected networks can maintain hierarchies i.e.
order and control actions, as well as how you study and analyze entities that change
structure frequently, move constantly and yet maintain an identifiable consistency.
Examples will draw on problems of maintaining borders, internet piracy, as well as
global terrorism assemblages such as Al-Qaeda.
