Abstract/Summary:

Asymmetric threat targets the weak points of a powerful state. Rather than building additional military capability, a state facing asymmetric threat can invest in dual-use research and development of technology and infrastructure that reduce losses from human error and natural disaster as well as losses from terrorism.
