Generally, anything written by Fareed Zakaria seems to be worth a read.

I once heard him describe the Al Qaeda organization as transformed from "top down control", to a "franchised organization". A sri lankan expert on AQ also had the same opinion (I forget his name).

I believe that events have shown this theory to be true.
