Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diese Dissertation beschäftigt sich mit der potenziell komplexen Interaktion von Terrorismus und wirtschaftlicher Entwicklung. Sie diskutiert die bestehende Theorie und Evidenz und zeigt verschiedene Forschungslücken auf, die durch drei empirische Arbeiten geschlossen werden sollen. Zusammenfassend kommen diese Arbeiten zu dem Ergebnis, dass Terrorismus weder in Lateinamerika noch in Westeuropa einen statistisch erfassbaren, negativen Effekt auf die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung gehabt hat. Dies deutet darauf hin, dass die von Terrorismus betroffenen Volkswirtschaften in diesen Teilen der Welt eine ausreichende makroökonomische Robustheit aufweisen, um negativen ökonomischen Schocks durch Terrorismus zu widerstehen. Es wird argumentiert, dass diese Robustheit mit länderspezifischen Faktoren, insbesondere dem allgemeinen ökonomisch-institutionellen Entwicklungsstand (z.B. im Hinblick auf politisch-ökonomische Diversifikation und Dezentralisierung), in Verbindung steht. Zugleich zeigen die empirischen Arbeiten, dass es einen negativen kausalen Effekt von wirtschaftlichen Faktoren auf das Ausmaß der terroristischen Aktivität in diesen Ländern gegeben hat. Es wird argumentiert, dass eine Verbesserung der sozioökonomischen Situation eines Landes mit höheren Opportunitätskosten von Terrorismus einhergeht, welche Terrorismus weniger attraktiv machen. Dieser Zusammenhang ergibt sich aus dem Kalkül eines rational handelnden Terroristen (gemäß der Rational-Choice-Theorie). Wiederum scheinen länderspezifische Faktoren die Übertragung ökonomischer Entwicklungen auf das Kalkül von Terrorist zu steuern, indem sie z.B. über sozialstaatliche Maßnahmen die Verteilung ökonomischen Erfolgs und die Reduzierung sozioökonomischer Missstände gewährleisten. ; ger

Download or read book The Political Economy of Terrorism written by Walter Enders and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-10-31 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Political Economy of Terrorism presents a widely accessible political economy approach to the study of terrorism. It applies economic methodology – theoretical and empirical – combined with political analysis and realities to the study of domestic and transnational terrorism. In so doing, the book provides both a qualitative and quantitative investigation of terrorism in a balanced up-to-date presentation that informs students, policy makers, researchers and the general reader of the current state of knowledge. Included are historical aspects, a discussion of watershed events, the rise of modern-day terrorism, examination of current trends, the dilemma of liberal democracies, evaluation of counterterrorism, analysis of hostage incidents and much more. The new edition expands coverage of every chapter, adds a new chapter on terrorist network structures and organization, accounts for changes in the Department of Homeland Security and the USA Patriot Act and insurance against terrorism. Rational-actor models of terrorist and government behavior and game-theoretic analysis are presented for readers with no prior theoretical training. Where relevant, the authors display graphs using data from International Terrorism: Attributes of Terrorist Events (ITERATE), the Global Terrorism Database (GTD), and other public-access data sets.

This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, the Middle East and North Africa region (MENA) has experienced more frequent and severe conflicts than in any other region of the world, exacting a devastating human toll. The region now faces unprecedented challenges, including the emergence of violent non-state actors, significant destruction, and a refugee crisis bigger than any since World War II. This paper raises awareness of the economic costs of conflicts on the countries directly involved and on their neighbors. It argues that appropriate macroeconomic policies can help mitigate the impact of conflicts in the short term, and that fostering higher and more inclusive growth can help address some of the root causes of conflicts over the long term. The paper also highlights the crucial role of external partners, including the IMF, in helping MENA countries tackle these challenges.

This book was released on 2017-06-29 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brutality is the defining characteristic of terrorism. It is despairing to learn that this brutality is the outcome of purposeful, rational, human behaviour. In this purposefulness, however, there lies the key to the interpretation, explanation and understanding of terrorist behaviour. Ultimately, it is in this purposefulness that we shall also find the key to overcoming terrorism. Economic analysis highlights this purposefulness, this rationality, and in doing so provides a different perspective from which to approach the threat of terrorism and the task of pre-empting and pursuing its perpetrators. This book develops this economic perspective within a series of important contexts, each characterised by particular types of terrorist behaviour, choices and strategies. The Economics of Terrorism brings new insights on how to deal with such challenges as the terrorist group¿s choice of attack method and target location, terrorist financing and ¿copycat¿ behaviour.

Download or read book On Terrorist Groups written by Khusrav Gaibulloev and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-31 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents nine up-to-date chapters on key aspects of terrorist groups by leading contributors in the study of terrorism. The chapters focus on the study of terrorist groups, their interface with targeted governments as well as ways to counter politically motivated terrorist attacks. To augment the efficacy of counterterrorism, governments must understand how terrorist groups form, recruit members, gain support, and choose targets. Additionally, governments must be aware of interactions within and among terrorist groups to allow governments to hone the practice of counterterrorism. This book addresses many of these topics. In particular, the volume casts light on group formation during 1860–1969 and 1970–2016, respectively. From different vantages, terrorist recruitment and group support are investigated. Other topics include the role of terrorist groups’ ideologies and goals, determinants of home-base attacks, groups’ response to government countermeasures, intergroup interactions as well as conflicts. On Terrorist Groups will be of interest to students and researchers of Terrorism, Political Violence, Security and Intelligence, Conflict Studies, and Political Science in general. This book was originally published as a special issue of Defence and Peace Economics.

This book was released on 2006-11-14 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is organized to assist readers in finding the topics that interest them the most. What do we really know about the contributing causes of terrorism? Are all forms of terrorism created equal, or are there important differences in terrorisms that one must know about to customize effective counter-strategies? Does poverty cause terrorism? Are terrorists typically crazy, vengeful, misled, or simply making an entirely sensible choice? Why would people blow themselves (and others) up? Is the “war on terrorism” even a useful idea? Is it being fought wisely, or are much better ideas staring policy makers in the face? Do leaders of targeted nations wilfully neglect the best solutions? Most of the lessons in this book concern the basic human ingredients that combust to produce violent extremism. Thus – regardless of the mutations that occur in substate terrorism – the timeless scholarship here will hopefully be somewhat helpful even to our grandchildren.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring paired pro/con pieces written specifically for this volume, Debating Terrorism and Counterterrorism : Conflicting Perspectives on Causes, Contexts, and Responses encourages students to grapple with the central debates surrounding the field of terrorism. With topics ranging from the root causes of terrorism, the role of religion in terrorism, whether suicide terrorism is ever justified, whether the spread of democracy can help defeat terrorism, and what trade-offs should exist between security and civil liberties, Gottlieb's outstanding cast of contributors returns, compelling students to wrestle with the conflicting perspectives that define the field. Stuart Gottlieb frames the paired essays with incisive headnotes, providing historical context and preparing students to read each argument critically. Each selection has been updated to account for recent world events, policy changes, and new scholarship. New to the reader, and by reviewer request, is a chapter, "Can Global Institutions Make a Difference in Fighting Terrorism?"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emphasizing a positive approach to dealing with terrorism (the carrot), this book provides a critique of deterrence policy (the stick) which can be ineffective and even counterproductive, and proposes three alternative and effective anti-terrorist policies: Decentralization reduces vulnerability to terrorist attacks. A system with many different centers is more stable due to its diversity, enabling one part to substitute for another. Positive incentives can be offered to actual and prospective terrorists not to engage in violent acts. Incentives include: reintegrating terrorists into society, welcoming repentents and offering them valued opportunities. Diverting attention by naming several terrorist groups potentially responsible for a particular terrorist act. The government thus supplies more information than the terrorist responsible would wish.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic marks the most significant, singular global disruption since World War II, with health, economic, political, and security implications that will ripple for years to come." -Global Trends 2040 (2021) Global Trends 2040-A More Contested World (2021), released by the US National Intelligence Council, is the latest report in its series of reports starting in 1997 about megatrends and the world's future. This report, strongly influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic, paints a bleak picture of the future and describes a contested, fragmented and turbulent world. It specifically discusses the four main trends that will shape tomorrow's world: - Demographics-by 2040, 1.4 billion people will be added mostly in Africa and South Asia. - Economics-increased government debt and concentrated economic power will escalate problems for the poor and middleclass. - Climate-a hotter world will increase water, food, and health insecurity. - Technology-the emergence of new technologies could both solve and cause problems for human life. Students of trends, policymakers, entrepreneurs, academics, journalists and anyone eager for a glimpse into the next decades, will find this report, with colored graphs, essential reading.
