This, however, is not the case of their asymmetric adversaries, provided with some characteristics that allow them to exploit every potential of information society. As a support to this statement, the authors review the main theoretical perspectives on conflicts and information, asymmetrical conflict, as well as some of the most important aspects of information management during the interventions in Afghanistan (2002) and Iraq (2003). %K media %K conflicts %K asymmetrical conflicts %K information warfare %K Iraq %K Afghanistan %U http://confines.mty.itesm.mx/articulos10/TorresSoriano.pdf
