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…
Trust in the European Union: What Is It and How Does It Matter?
2018
Bakardijeva Engelbrekt, Bremberg, Michalski, and Oxelheim introduce the concept of trust in the European Union by pointing out its elusive character comprising both interpersonal relations and attitudes towards organizations and broad-based institutions in society. In the early days of integration, trust was primarily connected to the European security community. Then, trust was present mainly among political, economic, and bureaucratic elites while public confidence in European integration took a vaguer form. Today, trust in the EU is challenged by numerous developments, ranging from the deteriorating internal and external security situation and terrorism to rising populism and anti-establ…
God and the Profit—A European Overlook on Some Economic Doctrines
2018
When we discuss the relationship religion-European identity, we should switch between two parties. We do not have “unique networks”. It is necessary to have “accomplices” and “connivance”, in the good sense of these words, for the purpose of progress which does not come only from one part, but from all parts. It is also necessary to always look to the future, but without neglecting history knowledge, depicting lessons, the needed experience. Out of all these, we exclude anarchism, left or right-side terrorism, religious or lay, Islamic or Christian etc. Superior technologies may promote it widely developed. Let us start from the fact that people radicalization—beyond those paid directly to …
Beyond the Precautionary Principle
2019
This chapter centers on the discussion around terrorism. While some scholars emphasize on terrorism as a risk, others alert on the limitations of thinking terrorism within the field of risk. This does not mean that terrorism does not exist, it is a big problem for urbanized contexts, but it escapes to the control of laycitizens. Following Niklas Luhman's definition we exert a criticism on those who think terrorism as a risk. This piece interrogated on the epistemological border of terrorism as well as the interest of publics and audiences to consume the others` mourning as a form of entertainment. This trend was facilitated by the unification of risk and threat notions. As we have explained…

MEDIACIÓN POST SENTENTIAM EN DELITOS DE TERRORISMO. DE LA RESTORATIVE JUSTICE A LA RECONSTRUCTIVE JUSTICE (Especial referencia a los encuentros entre…
2016
Spanish Abstract: En la ya larga historia del Derecho Penal se ha venido anudando la ideologia politica y la concepcion de Estado con los postulados politicos y juridicos que conformaron en el Siglo XIX el denominado Derecho Penal clasico. Desde esos postulados el Derecho Penal asumia un papel retributivo, primero, y preventivo, despues, si bien la evolucion politica, juridica y social, e incluso economica, ha modulado algunos de aquellos postulados, incorporando, desde finales del Siglo XX, algunas practicas restaurativas. Asi, aun conservando respuestas preventivas mas o menos represiva, con ciertos tintes utilitaristas de la pena, la justicia restaurativa ha ido adentrandose en la mayor …
Los medios masivos de comunicación y el terrorismo: entre la verdad y el miedo
2017
Los medios masivos de comunicación cumplen un rol importante en la sociedad, son una suerte de reforzadores morales que problematizan y ofrecen soluciones a las cuestiones importantes de la sociedad. No obstante, en la sociedad de consumo, somos testigos de un cambio sustancial en el rol de los medios quienes han pasado a ser productores del “espectáculo del desastre”. El 11 de septiembre ha marcado a fuego no solo el poder de los medios para distorsionar ciertas realidades a sus audiencias, sino para cubrir la noticia escondiendo las causas reales que fomentan el terrorismo. El presente ensayo intenta situarse como una critica constructiva al discurso periodístico y de los medios dominante…
