Ivan Arreguín-Toft Ivan Arreguín-Toft is a postdoctoral fellow in the International Security Program at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. His current research focuses on the the widely assumed but poorly researched question of the utility of barbarism—the systematic and deliberate violation of the laws of war in pursuit of a military objective—as a strategy in war. This research is expected to result in a book manuscript, tentatively entitled Worse than Death: The [F]utility of Barbarism in War. He has published a journal-length treatment of his theory of asymmetric conflict in International Security and his book, How the Weak Win Wars: A Theory of Asymmetric Conflict, was published by Cambridge University Press in December 2005.
