Terror Bombing: Die globale urbane Bedrohung von Prof. H. Granot und Dr. J Levinson In diesem höchst aktuellen Werk stellen die Autoren Möglichkeiten und Methoden vor, wie lokale Institutionen auf Terroranschläge reagieren und deren Auswirkungen lindern können. Die Autoren verbinden Theorie und Praxis anhand der Darstellung konkreter Beispiele auf der ganzen Welt (einschließlich der verheerenden Anschläge auf das World Trade Center und Pentagon). Angesichts der weltweit wachsenden Bedrohung durch Terroranschläge und des zunehmenden Bedarfs an professionellem Krisenmanagement finden auch betroffene Behörden und Einsatzpersonal solides Hintergrundwissen über eine der heute größten Bedrohungen der Städte. Die japanische Ausgabe des Buches erschien Ende 2005 bei Namiki Shobo, Tokio. Eine englische Ausgabe für Nordamerika wurde April 2009 in einer Gemeinschaftsproduktion von Dekel Publishing mit THE KEY Publishing House,Inc., Toronto, Kanada, herausgegeben.

In this innovative and highly relevant work, the authors stress ways in which local agencies can respond to and mitigate the effects of the worst acts of terror faced by urban authorities. The authors combine theory and practice, citing incidents around the world (including the devastating 9/11 attacks on the WTC in NYC and the Pentagon), while emphasizing Israel’s special experience in this field. In light of the increasing threat of terrorist acts and the rising interest in emergency management, Terror Bombing provides a solid background for officials and emergency response personnel who are seeking to understand one of the most dangerous threats to modern life. A Japanese-language edition of this title has been published in late 2005 by Namiki Shobo. An English-language North-American edition was co-published in April 2009 by Dekel with THE KEY Publishing House Inc., Toronto, Canada, followed by an E-book edition in 2010. 194 pages, 17X24 cm

Between 1983 and 1987, mercenaries adopting the pseudonym GAL (Grupos Antiterroristas de Liberación, Antiterrorist Liberation Group) paid by the Spanish treasury and relying upon national intelligence support were at war with the Basque militant group ETA (Euskadi (e)Ta Askatasuna, Basque Country and Freedom). Over four years, their campaign of extrajudicial assassinations spanned the French-Spanish border. Nearly thirty people were killed in a campaign comprised of torture, kidnapping, bombing and the assassination of suspected ETA activists and Basque refugees. This establishment of unofficial counterterrorist squads by a Spanish Government was a blatant detour from legality. It was also a rare case in Europe where no less than fourteen high-ranking Spanish police officers and senior government officials, including the Minister of Interior himself, were eventually arrested and condemned for counter-terrorism wrongdoings and illiberal practices. Thirty years later, this campaign of intimidation, coercion and targeted killings continues to grip Spain. The GAL affair was not only a serious example of a major departure from accepted liberal democratic constitutional principles of law and order, but also a brutal campaign that postponed by decades the possibility of a political solution for the Basque conflict. Counter-terror by proxy uncovers why and how a democratic government in a liberal society turned to a 'dirty war' and went down the route of illegal and extrajudicial killing actions. It offers a fuller examination of the long-term implications of the use of unorthodox counter-terrorist strategies in a liberal democracy.

La Terreur des Bombes – La peur urbaine universelle par le Pr. H. Granot et le Dr. J. Levinson Dans leur étude innovante et si importante, les auteurs insistent sur la façon dont les organismes locaux peuvent répondre et surtout mitiger les effets des pires actes de terreur auxquels doivent faire face les autorités urbaines. Ils allient théorie et pratique, citant des incidents à travers le monde (y compris les attaques meurtrières du World Trade Center à New York et du Pentagone le 11 septembre 2001), tout en mettant l’accent sur l’expérience particulière d’Israël dans ce domaine. Etant donné l’augmentation certaine de la menace d’actes terroristes et l’importance croissante de la gestion de l’état d’urgence, la Terreur des Bombes procure une information sérieuse pour les officiels et les personnes devant répondre à des situations d’urgence et cherchant à comprendre l’une des menaces les plus dangereuses de la vie moderne. Une édition japonaise de ce titre a été publiée à la fin de l'année 2005 par Namiki Shobo. L'édition en anglais pour l'Amérique du Nord a été publiée en avril 2009 par DEKEL en collaboration avec le KEY Publishing House Inc., Toronto, Canada.

Can terrorism and state violence cause democratic breakdown? Although the origins of violence have been studied, only rarely are its consequences examined. In this detailed comparative study of Uruguay, Spain, and Peru, Holmes claims that to understand the consequences of violence on democratic stability, terrorism and state responses to terrorism must be studied together. This extensively revised and expanded second edition takes advantage of new historical sources, an extended time span, and new theories that have emerged since the original publication. In addition to adding new data sources in the Peruvian and Spanish cases, the time period covered has been expanded from the late 1990s to early 2007, allowing a more comprehensive treatment of the consequences of state and non-state violence on democratic stability and the prospects for stability. The literature reviews have been significantly revised and updated and an entirely new chapter covers the special case of Spain, which faces both a domestic and an international threat. ;

This book explores how different publics make sense of and evaluate anti-terrorism powers within the UK, and the implications of this for citizenship and security. Drawing on primary empirical research, the book argues that whilst white individuals are not unconcerned about the effects of anti-terrorism, ethnic minority citizens (including, but not only those identifying as Muslim) believe that anti-terrorism powers have impacted negatively on their citizenship and security. This book thus offers the first systematic engagement with 'vernacular' or 'everyday' understandings of anti-terrorism policy, citizenship and security. It argues that while transformations in anti-terrorism frameworks impact on public experiences of security and citizenship, they do not do so in a uniform, homogeneous, or predictable manner. At the same time, public understandings and expectations of security and citizenship themselves shape how developments in anti-terrorism frameworks are discussed and evaluated. This important new book will be of interest to researchers and students working in a wide range of disciplines including Political Science, International Relations, Security Studies and Sociology.
