Revealing The Face Of Islamophobia: A Critical Evaluation Of Western Feminism, Kelley Quinn

The Corinthian

This paper will dive into the various pharisaical views and practices by governments and cultures through an intersectional feminist lens. Throughout the world, cultures shape the definition of appropriate and expected dress, particularly for women. In previous years, the covering of woman’s hair and/or face was a systemic oppression forced on by a patriarchal government. These women have made efforts to reclaim this clothing by enforcing a choice to wear or to not wear the garment. Western Feminism, however, still views these women as oppressed and forces them to remove their covering, such as making it illegal to wear or …

Relevansi Pendekatan Posdisipliner Pada Kajian Stratejik Global Dan Revolusi Industri “3.0”, “4.0”, Akhyar Yusuf Lubis

Jurnal Kajian Stratejik Ketahanan Nasional

Artikel ini menggambarkan fenomena cyberculture yang mencakup setiap aspek kehidupan sehari-hari dan kehidupan akademik. Revolusi informasi dari 3.0 ke 4.0 memunculkan perubahan radikal dalam konteks sosial- budaya menjadi fenomena digital, seperti ekonomi digital, kejahatan dunia maya, perang dunia maya, atau pertahanan virtual. Sejalan dengan argumen ini, penulis setuju dengan Klaus Schwab bahwa industri 4.0 akan berubah, tidak hanya konteks sosial-budaya, tetapi akan berdampak pada individu dan masyarakat juga sebagai "manusia digital". Tidak tepat menganalisis situasi dan kondisi ini dengan paradigma lama. Kita membutuhkan paradigma baru yang dapat mempelajari semua fenomena ini, yaitu pendekatan disiplin ilmu. Untuk mengungkapkan paradigma baru ini, …

Studi Teoritik Pemikiran Demokrasi Modern, Hamka Hendra Noer

Jurnal Kajian Stratejik Ketahanan Nasional

Perkembangan teori demokrasi sebagai sub-bidang ilmu politik berbarengan dengan keberadaan demokrasi modern. Sejak didirikan, teori negara telah mendominasi demokrasi modern. Dalam studi tentang demokrasi modern, para ahli telah membedakan antara pemahaman demokratis dan teori demokrasi. Perbedaannya membantu menjelaskan pendekatan terhadap subjek demokrasi menurut para pakar ilmu politik. Sejumlah teori demokrasi telah muncul di lingkungan akademik dan merupakan hasil dari para ilmuwan politik profesional. Literatur yang dibahas tentang teori demokrasi kontemporer mengungkapkan ada lima teori demokrasi yang mendominasi literatur — meskipun masih banyak yang tumpang tindih. Kelima teori yang bertahan adalah: (a) pluralis, (b) partisipatif, (c) liberal minimalis, (d) deliberatif, dan …

When To Strike: Exploring The Variables That Lead To Successful Decapitation Strikes, Renzo Pierres

Honors Undergraduate Theses

The purpose of this thesis is to determine how different variables can affect a terrorist group's reaction to a targeted leadership strike, known as a decapitation strike. Decapitation strikes often produce unwanted results, such as a splintering of the terrorist group, or a failure to destroy the group. It is important that we understand which variables can lead to a group's destruction after a decapitation strike, to maximize the decapitation's effectiveness. In my research I have determined that group size, group ideological extremism, and the role of the leader targeted all have a substantial impact on the success of the …

Conceptions About Terrorism: How Fearful Are We And How Does That Affect Us?, Rebecca Jackson

Honors Undergraduate Theses

Since the crusades, terrorism has been a form of violence used to promote some kind of agenda, whether political, social, religious or ideological (Martin 2018). With many different definitions of what constitutes terrorism, it is somewhat difficult to measure what exact impact terrorism has had globally. Attacks such as those on 9/11 in the United States and the Manchester bombings have been accepted worldwide as examples of acts of international terrorism. International terrorist attacks have lasting effects on both those directly affected as well as the larger community and beyond. Studies have shown that Americans are overly afraid of terrorism …

The Convergence Of The War On Terror And The War On Drugs: A Counter-Narcoterrorism Approach As A Policy Response, Lindsay Burton

CMC Senior Theses

This thesis investigates how and why U.S. policies and agencies are ill-equipped to respond to narco-terrorism and offers some policy recommendations for remedying that. Narco-terrorism is the merging of terrorism and drug trafficking. Terrorist organizations and narcotics traffickers each have much to offer the other; there is potential for symbiosis in the form of cooperation and even hybridization. Examination of the dynamics between terrorist organizations and drug traffickers, combined with an evaluation of the US responses to narcoterrorism in Colombia and Afghanistan, makes it clear that current US policy responses fail to recognize narcoterrorism as a unique challenge, and instead …

Witchcraft In The Press, Norman Miller

Dartmouth Scholarship

Between 1960 and 2010, Professor Miller collected about 720 newspaper reports on witchcraft in East Africa from local sources. Reports for Malawi and Zambia were dropped from this analysis to establish a collection of 521 reports for Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda. This database has yet to be fully analyzed, and is made available here for further research and publication in the understanding of witchcraft violence. The data may be sorted by date, country, press source, or by major topic using the Excel spreadsheet referenced below.
