Conceptualizing terrorism / Richards, Anthony   Journal Article
Richards, Anthony Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract This article argues that, while there have always been good reasons for striving for a universally agreed definition of terrorism, there are further reasons for doing so in the post 9/11 environment, notwithstanding the formidable challenges that confront such an endeavour. Arguing that the essence of terrorism lies in its intent to generate a psychological impact beyond the immediate victims, it will propose three preliminary assumptions: that there is no such thing as an act of violence that is in and of itself inherently terrorist, that terrorism is best conceptualized as a particular method of political violence rather than defined as inherent to any particular ideology or perpetrator, and that non-civilians and combatants can also be victims of terrorism. It will then outline the implications that these assumptions have for the definitional debate.

Health impact of disaster: a case of women's, health in post Kosi Flood / Minakshi   Journal Article
Minakshi Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Gender and Health Issues in Disaster: Disasters are traumatic events that are experienced by many people and may result in a wide range of mental and physical health consequences (Norris, Friedman, Watson, et al., 2002). The resulting impacts from disasters are frequently more severe on women and girls than those of their male counterparts and women's physical, reproductive and mental health needs, along with other facets of women's lives,.have largely been ignored in the whole process (Laska et al., 2008). According to WHO, there is pattern of gender differentiation at all level of disaster process: exposure ' to risk, risk perception, preparedness, response, physical impact, psychological impact, recovery and reconstruction and there is evidence showing that women and men may sufferdifferent negative health consequences after the disaster (WHO, 2002). However, it is not clear whether this is due to biological differences between the sexes, because of socially determined differences in women's and men's roles and status or because of the interaction of social and biological factors (WHO, 2002).

Main areas for improving military-political work when preparing for operations / Tukmakov, O.G.   Journal Article
TUKMAKOV, O.G. Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Based on an analysis of the requirements of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation for the organization of military-political work, as well as the experience of operational training and the use of groupings of troops (forces) of the Armed Forces in operations, we present a view of the main tasks of military-political bodies. We examine avenues and measures of military-political work during operational preparation in the context of the SMO [special military operation] in Ukraine. We point out the most typical drawbacks that have negatively affected the personnel's political and psychological state of mind.
