Comparing the Socio-Political Ethics of Fighting Terrorism with Extreme Self-Defense in USA

2018

In this study the authors adopted a post-positivist research design philosophy to explore the likelihood that Americans would support extreme self-defense policies like torture, reducing human rights or banning Muslims to fight against global terrorism, especially after 9/11 and in light of the Trump conservative government. The authors grounded their research questions into the literature to form hypotheses in a correlational design strategy which they tested using nonparametric statistics. They collected opinions from 3213 Americans during 2016-2017 about applying extreme self-defense tactics to combat global terrorism and how these opinions contrasted between those holding a conservative…

English Speaking Countries and the Culture of Fear

2020

The direct intervention or full-scare led wars are ideologically legitimized by the needs of bringing the ideals of American democracy, liberty, freedom and mobility. However, at the bottom, this globalized culture of fear hidden dark interests associated to exploitation. Paradoxically, these types of interventions suggest that terrorism needs the use of force, but in so doing, impotence and deprivation surface. Undoubtedly, Anglo and Latin worlds have created, according to their cultural matrices, diverse tactics to adapt to environment, as the form of understanding the future. While Anglo-countries developed a fascinating attraction to risk and future, the sense of predestination alludes …

Constructing an American fear culture from red scares to terrorism

2013

Building on the work of social analysts who have identified the emerging culture of fear in the USA, this article argues that the current fears about terrorism derive from deliberate campaigns by the world capitalism’s elites. It traces the history of political scares since the late 19th century to show an evolution from red scares to terrorism. While acknowledging the complexities of cultural constructions, the obsession with terrorism is shown as an outgrowth and offspring of earlier, anti-communist hysterias in the USA.

Huntington and the liberal thought. Problems of Anglo-democracy to understand politics

2013

The liberal thought has inspired philosophy and sociology during years. From its view, US has two main goals. One is to expand the civilized culture to other non-western countries, and second to grant the democratic values. Paradoxically, terrorism poses one of the most troubling aspects of contemporanean democracy. On one hand, not only it defies the democratic resources to anticipate the next blow, but also put US to conduct one-sided attacks to autonomous countries. To legitimize the expansion of this new imperial order, the liberal discourse appealed to two strategies: first and foremost, denoting pejoratively as the case of Latin America that there is a cultural matrix that impedes the…

ASV un Pakistānas sadarbība terorisma apkarošanā (2001-2014)

2015

ASV un Pakistānas sadarbība terorisma apkarošanā, sniedz ārkārtīgi būtisku informāciju gan attiecībā uz sasniegto pretterorisma jomā, gan attiecībā uz iespējamajiem trūkumiem pretterorisma stratēģijās. Lai gan abu valstu attiecības raksturo abpusēja neuzticēšanās, ASV vadītā pretterorisma cīņa būtu neiespējama bez Pakistānas kā reģiona sabiedrotā. Šobrīd ir skaidrs, ka abu valstu sadarbībā nav sasniegti cerētie rezultātus, bet lai identificētu sadarbības neizdošanās iemeslus ir nepieciešama padziļināta pretterorisma sadarbības izpēte. Lai izvērtētu sadarbību pretterorisma centienos, darba ietvaros tiek aplūkoti abu valstu īstenotie pretterorisma pasākumi, kā arī analizētas pretterorisma pol…
