This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2015 in the subject Business economics - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,7, European University Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder), course: Marketing - International Management, language: English, abstract: Significant transformations have shaped the world in recent years and the concept of globalization has become one of the most controversial issues. Numerous studies have put their focus on the consequences of globalization on our lives. However, no agreement yet exists among scholars (Guillen, 2001). Speaking of globalization means understanding all its diverse dimensions and actors as well as discussing their transformative power. In his recent book "From Walmart to Al Qaeda" Murillo (2015) offers a multidisciplinary approach considering all the structural elements such as cultural, technological, economic, financial, political and institutional ones that shape and at the same time are shaped by globalization. By discussing the concept of globalization and its impact on each dimension, various approaches are used for diagnosing the direction of change and perils as well as benefits. In addition to that, Murillo (2015: xiii) suggests that "the very complexity and scope of globalization means any discussion requires examination of the various schools of thought, theories and approaches [...]" in order to gain a better understanding of the world. Even though institutional theory is closely linked to the process of globalization and has been widely applied to diverse fields when analyzing the consequences of globalization, this approach remains widely untouched in Murillo's (2015) book. Institutional theory has gained significant importance in sociological research and has become a leading theoretical foundation, as there is an increased importance of understanding that countries differ in terms of institutions (Diehl and McFarland, 2010:1740-1741). As "institutions are all around us" (Cornelissen, Durand, Fiss and Vaara, 2015:10) they do not only form a"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SIX EYEWITNESSES ASSERT that they saw 9/11 terrorists in the Huntington-to-Hurricane stretch of West Virginia twenty-three months before the hijacking of four airliners and the devastating attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon outside Washington, D.C. One witness said he sold them trailers to live in. TWO DAYS AFTER THE VISIT FROM the Al Shehri brothers and Abdulaziz Alomari and three other companions, Saturday October 9, and ten minutes before Superior's 5 p.m. closing time, salesman George Abboud, a Palestinian, came over to Larry Maynard's office and said: "Larry, there are two guys here who want to talk with you." Maynard excused himself from a couple with whom he'd been closing a sale and walked to the front of the dealership. Standing there he found Wail Al Shehri with another middle easterner. The second man stood about 5 foot 10, was clean shaven, and wore khaki Docker pants and a pullover shirt. He gave off an odor of cologne. "Larry," said Wail Al Shehri, "this is my friend who just came in from Germany. His name is Mohammad Atta. We came to buy the Cadillac." - From the back cover

Book Synopsis The Al Qaeda Connection by : Imtiaz Gul
Download or read book The Al Qaeda Connection written by Imtiaz Gul and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2009-08-22 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The face of Terror has changed dramatically. Today major terrorist attacks are marked by their meticulous preparation and deadly execution—as the Mumbai attacks of 26/11 have clearly established. The most important planning centre for these operations is the tribal region located on the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Following the U.S. action in Afghanistan in December 2001 many Al Qaeda and Taliban fighters escaped and settled down in these regions where, historically, the writ of the state has always been weak. Taking advantage of the inhospitable terrain and the porous border, Al Qaeda militants of multiple ethnic origins regrouped. In 2008 alone they launched over fifty suicide missions which have inflicted more than six thousand casualties in attacks across the world. In these remote valleys the fatal mix of ultra-conservatism, economic under-development, religious obscurantism and the absence of law and justice has resulted in a cauldron of militancy which is being fed and fuelled by the shadowy presence of the Al Qaeda and the Taliban. Ever-younger fighters are being recruited for suicide missions while music, shaving and the education of girls are proscribed by increasingly powerful clerics. In this book Imtiaz Gul follows the trail of militancy and the way it has evolved under Al Qaeda’s influence in tribal areas.
Download or read book What Does Al Qaeda Want? written by and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2004-11-23 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of the September 11th attacks, al-Qaeda has become the most infamous terrorist organization in history. While their actions are deplorable, it remains a populist and idealist movement—and one that continues to spread. Despite heavy media coverage, most people are unaware of the group's ultimate goals. Sampling from actual al-Qaeda texts, this is al-Qaeda in its own words, rather than another interpretation (which often emphasizes the inflammatory religious rhetoric) offered by the Bush administration and other factions of the Western world. Introductions and commentary provide the historical context necessary to understand fully the interconnection between the religious, social, and political issues that led to the emergence of Osama bin Laden and his jihad against the West. These primary sources enable readers to discern the fundamental convictions underlying the group's demands, and help answer the question, "What does al Qaeda want?"

Download or read book Path of Blood written by Thomas Small and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-08-28 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Path of Blood tells the gripping and horrifying true story of the underground army which Osama Bin Laden created in order to attack his number one target: his home country, Saudi Publishing in paperback to coincide with the documentary film release, Path of Blood tells the horrifying true story of the underground army which Osama Bin Laden created in order to attack his number one target: his home country, Saudi Arabia. His aim was to conquer the land of the Two Holy Mosques, the birthplace of Islam and, from there, to re-establish a Muslim Empire that could take on the West and win. Thomas Small and Jonathan Hacker use new insider evidence to expose the real story behind the Al Qaeda. Far from the image of single-minded holy warriors they presented to the world, the bands of soldiers are shown to be riven by infighting and lack of discipline. Yet the threat they posed was unquestionable. Ill-disciplined or not, these were men who killed with impunity, and who tried to acquire a nuclear bomb. Drawing on unprecedented access to Saudi government archives, interviews with top intelligence officials in the Middle East and in the West, as well as with captured Al Qaeda militants, and with access to exclusive captured video footage from Al Qaeda cells, Path of Blood tells the full story of the terrorist campaign and the desperate attempt by Saudi Arabia's internal security services to put a stop to it.

Book Synopsis Al-Qaeda the Spider by : Art Aronson
Download or read book Al-Qaeda the Spider written by Art Aronson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-06-23 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story, partly fiction, partly fact, will open your eyes to the question - Are we safe? Since 9/11 we have experienced individual radical Jihadic attempts to kill people and affect the economy, namely Fort Hood, the Christmas plane, and Times Square, but not any attempts at mass terrorism. Does this mean we are safe? Not at all! Plots of mass terrorism could be lurking all around us and we are not only ignorant of efforts, but feel comfortable that we are being protected. Al-Qaida The Spider reveals that mass terrorism may be more than a one day plan. Plans to adversely affect many people and the economy may take many months or years, and Jihadists may be in place in our communities plotting simultaneous or timed actions. Are brainstormed ideas being developed? And is needed protection in place? You will hope that people like Toni Sharp are in place and have the responsibility to do the best they can to keep us safe! Yet, Is it enough?
Download or read book Osama written by Jonathan C. Randal and published by Alfred A. Knopf. This book was released on 2004 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is it possible for one middle-aged Saudi millionaire to threaten the world’s only superpower? This is the question at the center of Jonathan Randal’s riveting, timely account of Osama bin Laden’s role in the rise of terrorism in the Middle East. Randal–a journalist whose experience of the Middle East spans the past forty years–makes clear how Osama’s life epitomizes the fatal collision between twenty-first-century Islam and the West, and he describes the course of Osama’s estrangement from both the West and the Saudi petro-monarchy of which his family is a part. He examines Osama’s terrorist activities before September 11, 2001, and shows us how, after the attack on the World Trade Center, Osama presented the West with something new in the annals of contemporary terrorism: an independently wealthy entrepreneur with a seemingly worldwide following ready to do his bidding. Randal explores the possibility that Osama offered the Saudis his Al-Qaeda forces to drive Saddam Hussein out of Kuwait in 1991; he traces the current sources of Osama’s money; and he tells us why the Iraq war has played into the hands of the terrorists. With his long-maintained sources in the Middle East and his intimate understanding of the region, Randal gives us a clearer explanation than any we have had of the whys and wherefores of the world’s most prominent and feared terrorist.
