It is noteworthy to mention that this paper was produced within mere years of the attack upon the World Trade Center in September of 2001, which many regard as one of the most atrocious terrorist attacks upon the United States, and certainly within its borders, of all time. To that end, the author proposes a number of methods and devices to be employed to detect present and future instances of terrorism in a highly stratified manner that allows for rational, efficacious countermeasures to greatly reduce such threats before they become manifest. It is important to note the degree of emphasis with which the author advocates the sharing and dissmenation of information between law enforcement agencies at a variety of levels, which are primarily evinced at the municipal, state, and federal levels. The author posits that one of the weaknesses exploited during...
As a result, one of the primary foundations upon which Assessing and Managing the Terrorist Threat is based upon is the national model of intelligence gathering and sharing which many local and state law enforcement officials have adhered to known as the United States Department of Homeland Security, which "has expanded its computer-based counter-terrorism system to all 50 states, 5 territories, the District of Columbia, and 50 major urban areas to improve the flow of threat information" (1). In many ways, the compiling of intelligence related to terrorist threats is one of the essential methods required to actively assess potential disaster-related scenarios, whether related to terrorist
New Deal Philosophy and economy of new Deal The government of the United States became greatly involved in economic issues after the stock market had crashed in 1929. This crash visited most serious economic dislocation on America's economy. It lasted 1929-1940. This prompted President Franklin D. Roosevelt to launch the New Deal to alleviate the emergency. Very important legislations were and institutions were set up during the New Deal Era. These legislations
New Deal Politically-motived objections to President Roosevelt's "New Deal" would long outlive FDR himself. In 2003, when Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman was looking for a term to describe the ideologically-driven motivations of President George W. Bush and his administration, the phrase he selected was "the great unraveling" -- Krugman's image saw Roosevelt's New Deal programs (above all Social Security) as having become the very fabric of the society in which
New Deal The Great Crash of 1929 and the Depression that followed paved the way to the American Presidency for Franklin D. Roosevelt, who won the elections in 1932 pledging "...to a new deal for the American people" 1. The Deal's application began in March 1933 and consisted of a series of banking reforms, work relief programs, emergency relief programs and agricultural programs. The Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA) was drafted in 1933
New Deal Repercussions for America's Public And Private Sectors Indisputably, the Great Depression, which began with October 29, 1929 stock market crash and created a need for the subsequent extensive New Deal legislation of the 1930's, changed America's public and private sectors, and American citizens' expectations of their government, for the rest of the 20th century and beyond. Thus New Deal legislation and programs greatly altered the existing relationship between American
The American government has since steered clear of measures like price regulations and has instead promoted a model that trusts the elasticity of the market. However, New Deal measures like unemployment insurance and social security have remained in place. World War Two, rather than any direct effects of the New Deal, helped stimulate the American economy. Since the Reagan administration, the American government has followed a trajectory nearly opposite to
New Deal Program The Great Depression hit America in ways that affected everyone, from the richest of the country's society, to the poorest of the urban and rural inhabitants. The stock market crashing left many rich society folk with no wealth, the farmers found themselves without any consumers to buy their overabundance of too-expensive products, and the urban families found themselves precariously scrounging for means of survival, oftentimes going hungry for
