How Do I Reduce My Bilirubin

combating terrorism, the economic approach


How to effectively fight terrorism? This was the question we have set ourselves. Our aim was to investigate terrorism from an economic point of view and the change in the cost-benefit analysis to contain terrorism.

The benefit to a terrorist organization is given by, among other things, the media impact and the destabilization of given institutions. The costs include the risk of being caught and punished to.

presented in the first part of the discussion itself, not the common way to meet with the institutions of the Terror, to the benefit of a terrorist attack is received and not explicitly, the costs in their sights.

Current institutions regard the terrorists as rational beings. You are looking for certain types. You have the idea that terrorists are crazy. From this perspective, the economic approach can not be applied.

It turns out that there is not a type that is a terrorist and that when examined from the perspective of costs and benefits of terrorism, the terrorist behaves very rational. He wants maximum media attention at the lowest possible cost. If the terrorist persecution intensified and more professional the terrorist organization and strengthens the cohesion. It is therefore difficult to obtain outside information about this organization.

In the following four different approaches have been shown, should keep a lid from an economic point of view on terrorism. These are:

  • decentralization (economic, political, social): The benefit of a terrorist attack is reduced because of a stop the action and performance of a company are taken less seriously affected.

  • Positive incentives it (contrary of punishment): We try to incorporate terrorists into society again. This can be an incentive there to betray other terrorists, but the costs are very low.

  • Fast restore the normal situation this way, the effect of a terrorist attack can be reduced, because the attacks have not made a long-lasting visible impact. The terrorist organization will be also responsible for the deed, so that they and their targets are known:

  • No direct blame . Taking into consideration several terrorist organizations, so is the attention distributed to several organizations. Helpful here is the presumption of innocence.

An inescapable problem with this approach is that the policy has no benefit in the application of these approaches. These are long term and can push the people to understand.
