Understanding Lone Actor Terrorism Past Experience Future Outlook and Response Strategies

Understanding Lone Actor Terrorism Past Experience Future Outlook and Response Strategies

This volume examines the lone actor terrorist phenomenon including the larger societal trends which may or may not have led to their acts of terrorism. With lone actor terrorism becoming an increasingly common threat the contributors to this volume aim to answer the following questions: What drives the actions of individuals who become lone actor terrorists? Are ideological and cultural issues key factors or are personal psychological motives more useful in assessing the threat? Do lone actors evolve in a broader social context or are they primarily fixated loners? What response strategies are available to security services and law enforcement? What is the future outlook for this particular terrorist threat? Although these issues are frequently discussed few books have taken a global perspective as their primary focus. While many books focus on lone actor terrorists in relation to terrorist groups such as Al-Qaida and the Islamic State few if any cover lone actors of all ideological backgrounds including the variants of active shooters and malicious insiders in information security such as Edward Snowden – with both of these latter categories constituting an important variant of lone actors. Utilising the expertise of academics and practitioners the volume offers a valuable multidisciplinary perspective. This book will be of much interest to students of terrorism and counter-terrorism political violence criminology security studies and IR. | Understanding Lone Actor Terrorism Past Experience Future Outlook and Response Strategies

The Cultural Adjustment of Asian Lone Mothers Living in London

The Cultural Adjustment of Asian Lone Mothers Living in London

First published in 1998 this insightful volume aims to explore how 90 Indian and African single mothers in 1993 London resolve the dual challenges of single parenthood and their ethnic origins along with a comparison with their British counterparts. This is one of only a few studies devoted exclusively to Asian lone mothers in Britain and sheds light on the problems encountered by a group largely ignored by researchers to date. Rachana Sinha establishes the impact of differences in family values on issues of marriage women’s status and lone parenthood and brings to light some of the mothers’ cultural and psychological adjustments to these values and life in London. The women’s experiences of lone parenthood are shown through their relationships with the father their family and friends and with contacts with social organizations. Sinha ends the study with suggestions and implications for social policy drawn from her findings. | The Cultural Adjustment of Asian Lone Mothers Living in London

Lone Mothers Between Paid Work and Care The Policy Regime in Twenty Countries

Lone Mothers Between Paid Work and Care The Policy Regime in Twenty Countries

This title was first published in 2000. This is a study which compares and contrasts how lone mothers' relationships to paid work and care-giving are constructed across 20 countries and with what outcomes for lone mothers' levels of economic well-being. In doing so the book explores from an international perspective the implications of the re-orientation of lone mothers' citizenship within the UK policy field from that of care-giver to paid worker. The volume engages with feminist comparative social policy literature concerned with specifying a construction of citizenship appropriate to capturing international variations in women's social rights. By incorporating social rights attached to paid work and care as well as those which enable lone mothers to move between sequential periods of paid work and care-giving across the child-rearing cycle the study makes a significant contribution to the literature. | Lone Mothers Between Paid Work and Care The Policy Regime in Twenty Countries

Lone Fungus Steam CD Key

Lone Fungus Steam CD Key

Explore an ancient world, acquire new abilities and discover secrets!There exist ten distinct areas for you to explore, each with its own unique set of enemies and obstacles. If you are willing to scour every nook and cranny in each area, you'll uncover plenty of secrets and receive well-deserved rewards. Through your exploration, you will earn significant upgrades in the form of Relics, Emblems, and upgrades to your Health or Mindpoints. The Combat in Lone Fungus is simplistic but has depth in terms of customization. You can for instance parry anything that would normally would damage you, but parrying incoming projectiles in particular will shoot them back at foes. You are however never forced to parry and you can even change how the parry system works by equipping Emblems!In addition to Emblems, there are Relics that work very similarly to the Charm system in Hollow Knight. Some change how your healing works and others increase your sword damage or give you additional protection. There are 60 Relics in the game and you choose what your strengths will be through the Relics. You can make some really specialized builds focusing on defense, healing, speed, melee attacking, or spell-casting!Lone Fungus is essentially a precision platformer, but it doesn't compel you to undertake overly difficult platforming tasks in order to advance in the game. Instead, all the platforming challenges are confined to optional side rooms, allowing you to relish the game as a Metroidvania-style adventure game focused on combat and exploration, while still benefiting from the precise controls of a precision platformer. However, if you're inclined to master the game's hardcore mechanics, there are practice rooms available for you to refine your skills and take on the most daunting platforming challenges that the game has to offer.

FAR: Lone Sails Steam CD Key

FAR: Lone Sails Steam CD Key

FAR: Lone Sails is original adventure game in which players travel through a ruined world aboard an unusual vehicle, resembling a crossing between a boat and a train. The vehicle is used to move along the bottom of a dry ocean, where there is no shortage of wrecks and other debris. Story Players set off on a journey through a ruined world. For this purpose, an unusual vehicle, a bit like a steam locomotive, is indispensable. The game does not contain dialogue or text, and the only information about the world and the catastrophe that has befallen it is provided by the environmental narrative. Gameplay We observe the game in a side view, having the ability to zoom in and out of the camera. The main assumption of the game is simple: the locomotive moves forward, and the player, as a little guy operating it, has to watch over the operation of the deck elements: add fuel to the furnace, release steam from the boiler, put and fold the sail, make repairs, etc. From time to time we come across the elements. on fuel tanks and items abandoned by people who once lived in the places we traverse. We also have to stop regularly to remove obstacles in the way of our machine, which requires solving an uncomplicated logic puzzle, and sometimes also allows us to improve our vehicle with new functions.

Lone Star Tarnished A Critical Look at Texas Politics and Public Policy

Lone Star Tarnished A Critical Look at Texas Politics and Public Policy

Texas pride like everything else in the state is larger than life. So too perhaps are the state’s challenges. Lone Star Tarnished approaches public policy in the nation’s most populous red state from historical comparative and critical perspectives. The historical perspective provides the scope for asking how various policy domains have developed in Texas history. In each chapter Cal Jillson compares Texas public policy choices and results with those of other states and the United States in general. Finally the critical perspective allows readers to question the balance of benefits and costs attendant to what is often referred to as the Texas way or the Texas model and to assess the many claims of Texas’s exceptionalism. Through Jillson’s lively and lucid prose students are well equipped to analyse how Texas has done and is doing compared to selected states and the national average over time and today. This text is aimed at students and professors of Texas politics who want to stress history political culture and public policy. New to the Fourth Edition Fully updated to include the most recent Texas elections and political events Covers the 2019 legislative session Highlights new population data with projections forward to 2050 recently released by the U. S. Census and the Texas State Data Center. Explores the dramatic increases in Texas oil and gas production and their impact on global and U. S. prices and on the profitability and the viability of many Texas producers in light of the recent plunge in prices.
