Invisible Threats

Building Terrorism Resistant Communities
This book includes the proceedings of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s (NATO) 2008 Advanced Research Workshop (ARW). The goal of the meeting was to explore methods to involve the community in the fight against terrorism in an effort to enhance its protection from terrorist attacks and to establish a network between the participants for future collaborations.

(2) Counter-terrorism practices and their relation to the community; focused on developing non-orthodox methods to combat terrorism. I...
Maritime Security in East and Southeast Asia
This volume investigates the nature of threats facing, or perceived as facing, some of the key players involved in Asian maritime politics. The articles in this collection present case studies on Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Thailand, Japan, China, and Southeast Asia as a whole and focus on domestic definitions of threats and conceptualisations of security. These studies map the differing understandings of danger in this region and explore how contending narratives of "threats" and "security" affect the national maritime security policy deliberations within the countries of this region. Those interested in maritime security and management in Asia will find this collection an invaluable addition to the literature on this topic.

Storia segreta dei pirati
Tra verità e leggenda: il racconto del terrore dei mari Il fenomeno della pirateria iniziò con lo svilupparsi dei primi commerci marittimi. Dopodiché l’intera storia della navigazione – in particolare di quella commerciale – è stata stabilmente segnata dalla presenza di feroci pirati (dal greco peirân, “assalire”), armati fino ai denti e pronti ad abbordare con le proprie navi altre imbarcazioni. Di razzia in razzia, la pirateria divenne un elemento costante nella vita quotidiana degli insediamenti costieri del Mediterraneo. Le flotte di predoni segnarono le vicende di molte popolazioni, tra cui fenici, etruschi e greci, arrivando infine a contaminare il mondo romano. A seguir...

The History of the Jews in Early Modern Italy
Challenging traditional historiographical approaches, this book offers a new history of Italian Jews in the early modern age. The fortunes of the Jewish communities of Italy in their various aspects – demographic, social, economic, cultural, and religious – can only be understood if these communities are integrated into the picture of a broader European, or better still, global system of Jewish communities and populations; and, that this history should be analyzed from within the dense web of relationships with the non-Jewish surroundings that enveloped the Italian communities. The book presents new approaches on such essential issues as ghettoization, antisemitism, the Inquisition, the history of conversion, and Jewish-Christian relations. It sheds light on the autonomous culture of the Jews in Italy, focusing on case studies of intellectual and cultural life using a micro-historical perspective. This book was first published in Italy in 2014 by one of the leading scholars on Italian Jewish history. This book will appeal to students and scholars alike studying and researching Jewish history, early modern Italy, early modern Jewish and Italian culture, and early modern society.
