Mathematical Methods in Counterterrorism
This title presents the most current research from mathematicians and computer scientists from around the world to develop strategies for counterterrorism and homeland security to the broader public
Evolutionary Dynamics of the Insurgency in Iraq
Individuals are not electrons. But in some situations, they behave very much alike. When it comes to many social and political questions, individuals’ complex attitudes and beliefs must be boiled down to a simple yea (“spin up”) or nay (“spin down”). Although human societies, like physical materials, are very complex, some of their properties can be determined by understanding the interactions that occur between individuals (“atoms”). In particul…
The Torturer's Dilemma
Terrorism today is one of the main threats to Western civilization. Almost as dire a threat is the fight against terrorism itself. A broad spectrum of antiterrorism measures may significantly change the nature of society by destroying those forms of cooperative activity that underlie Western culture. This threat becomes obvious with an analysis of mathematical models of human moral behavior
Breaking Al Qaeda Cells
How can we tell if an Al Qaeda cell has been broken? That enough members have been captured or killed so that there is a high likelihood they will be unable to carry out a new attack, and military resources can be redirected away from them and toward more immediate threats? This article uses order theory to quantify the degree to which a terrorist network is still able to function. This tool will help law enforcement know when a battle against Al…
The middle east peace process
Although May's General Election in Israel represents a hiatus in the Middle East peace process, which has been stalled since the 1996 elections brought Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud Coalition government came to power, 1999 may mark a new stage in the quest for stability. The Netanyahu government, even though it accepted the letter of the Oslo Accords between Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization, thwarted them in spirit, dragging out the …
