"Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Contemporary Suicide Terrorism in an Islamic World: Origins, Trends and Ways of Tackling, Astana, Kazakhstan, 23-26 September, 2010"--Title page verso.
Amplified by a volatile security environment, technology and globalization, terrorism and violent extremism have become a genuine threat on a global level, and the ability of terrorist groups to capitalize on local issues such as poverty and inequality have helped to fuel the process of radicalization and recruitment. The region of the Western Balkans is not immune to these trends, and the gender component has been recognized as an important aspect in efforts to counter and prevent such practices. This book presents edited contributions delivered at the NATO Advanced Training Course (ATC) “Gender Mainstreaming in Counter-terrorism Efforts in Western Balkans” held from 16 to 21 May 2021. ...
This volume brings together research from around the world to explore a range of topics within the project of detecting terrorist activities. It is divided into six key themes: conceptualising terrorism, deception and decision making, social and cultural factors in terrorism, modelling hostile intent, strategies for counter-terrorism, and future directions. Twenty four chapters explore the spectrum of detecting terrorist activities, hostile intent, crowded public spaces and suspicious behaviour. A variety of disciplines are represented, including ergonomics/human factors, psychology, criminology, cognitive science, sociology, political theory, engineering and computer science.
L'Europa de l'Est, tan procliu després de la caiguda del Mur de Berlín a l'enfrontament interinstitucional, els conflictes interètnics i les tensions internacionals, sembla haver encarat en general la senda de l'estabilitat i la integració, tant interna com internacional, i haver substituït les convulsions pròpies dels Estats en procés de gestació, pel canvi gradual, característic dels períodes de maduresa política. En qualsevol dels casos, la realitat de l'est d'Europa continua sent rica en matisos i genera temes d'estudi tan suggeridors i debats acadèmics tan apassionants com els que es recullen en el present volum. Estructurat a sis blocs temàtics aquesta obra constitueix un esforç col·lectiu per portar fins al públic lector una àmplia varietat de perspectives sobre un món cada vegada més proper al nostre.

En todas las culturas los padres socializan a sus hijos con los valores y las practicas de sus sociedades, (Whiting & Whiting, 1975).Los padres inmigrantes aportan los valores de su cultura de origen y se esfuerzan en preservarlos en el nuevo entorno y transmitirlos a sus hijos. En general, en la mayoría de los casos, los valores son diferentes a los de la sociedad de acogida. Y como resultado de esta diferencia, los padres se enfrentan a inculcar a sus hijos los valores de sus culturas de origen mientras vivan en la nueva sociedad, que alberga diferentes valores. De esta manera, sus hijos están expuestos a los valores de los padres, pero también a los valores de la mayoría de la sociedad en la cual viven
