Al Qaeda as a dune organization: toward a typology of islamic terrorist organizations / Mishal, Shaul; Rosenthal, Maoz Jul-Aug 2005  Journal Article
Mishal, Shaul Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Jul-Aug 2005.
Summary/Abstract Al Qaeda and its affiliated groups offer the analyst a highly complex challenge. The current literature classifies Islamic terrorist organizations as either networked or hierarchical. Yet, this classification fails to account for the appearance on the international stage of a new type of global terrorism. Most notably, it does not capture the structure and mode of operation of Al Qaeda as it emerged after the 2001 U.S.-led assault on Afghanistan. This article therefore introduces a new conceptthe Dune organizationthat is distinct from other organizational modes of thinking. This conceptualization leads to a new typology of Islamic terrorist organizations. This typology concentrates on organizational behavior patterns and provides a framework for a comparative analysis of terrorist movements, which is applied to a study of Al Qaeda, Hizballah, Hamas, and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

Antidumping: the third rail of trade policy / Mankiw, N Gregory; Swagel, Phillip L Jul-Aug 2005  Journal Article
Mankiw, N Gregory Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Jul-Aug 2005.
Summary/Abstract Although few U.S. politicians will admit it, antidumping policy has strayed far from its original purpose of guarding against predatory foreign firms. It is now little more than an excuse for a few powerful industries to shield themselves from competition -- at great cost to both American consumers and American business

Antiterrorism legislation in australia:: a proportionate response to the terrorist threat? / Michaelsen, Christopher Jul-Aug 2005  Journal Article
Michaelsen, Christopher Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Jul-Aug 2005.
Summary/Abstract This article examines key provisions of Australia's antiterrorism legislation introduced in the aftermath of the 11 September attacks. Never before in history has Australia witnessed a comparable overhaul of national security legislation and the introduction of laws that significantly curtail civil liberties and fundamental freedoms. A question that thus needs to be addressed is whether or not Canberra's drastic legislative measures are justified by the severity of the terrorism threat to Australia. It is argued that the actual risk of a terrorism attack occurring on Australian soil is rather low. As a consequence, the Howard government's antiterrorism laws constitute a disproportionate response that has worrisome long-term implications for Australia's legal system and its society more generally.

Publication Jul-Aug 2005.
Summary/Abstract President Bush is only half right to trumpet the spread of freedom as the main objective of U.S. foreign policy; the pursuit of justice is just as important. Broadening the focus would not only befit the United States' political tradition, but also help neutralize opposition from radical Islamists and critics of globalization.

Summary/Abstract Increasing aid and market access for poor countries makes sense but will not do that much good. Wealthy nations should also push other measures that could be far more rewarding, such as giving the poor more control over economic policy, financing new development-friendly technologies, and opening labor markets.

Summary/Abstract Recent outbreaks of avian flu, SARS, the Ebola virus, and mad cow disease wreaked havoc on global trade and transport. They also all originated in animals. Humanity today is acutely vulnerable to diseases that start off in other species, yet our health care remains dangerously blinkered. It is time for a new, global approach.
