The country is receiving continuous support in its efforts to consolidate its democratic institutions. One focus area is the reform and professionalization of the security sector. This reform is understood predominantly in terms of embedding the security sector firmly and sustainably in the democratic institutions of the Republic. Beyond this pivotal issue, just as important is a democratic dialogue about security and defense policy. Indonesians need to talk about security and develop a common understanding of the security threats, challenges, and risks ahead in order to develop democratically legitimized strategies and policies to cope with them. One crucial precondition is that all those involved in this dialogue have the same language at their disposal when talking security. For a long time, dialogue on security issues has been limited to the security sector and a small circle of experts, excluding large parts of the political elite, the media, and civil society. This is partly due to the complexity and sensitivity of the issues under discussion, but it is also due to the complex technical and supposedly exclusive language of security-related terminology. This dictionary seeks to translate the exclusive security sector language, thus opening up the dialogue to those so far excluded. Security has two dimensions: internal and external. They are interlinked, especially in today’s globalized environment. Therefore, security dialogues have also tended to become more globalized. As described by Dr. Ingo Wandelt in his foreword to the dictionary, this dialogue is conducted predominantly in the lingua franca of security terminology, English. With this dictionary we want to facilitate the involvement of Indonesian experts, policy-makers, and the interested public in international debates on national, regional, and global security. This is necessary in order to communicate best practices, negotiate and coordinate multinational security initiatives, and cooperate on the political stage as well as on the ground. The security sector loves acronyms and abbreviations, and Indonesians love them too. This is strongly reflected in Indonesian security terminology. There is a huge proliferation of acronyms and abbreviations, which facilitates efficient communication among experts, but complicates communication with the general public and the international community. These two volumes of the dictionary on comprehensive security in Indonesia 6 7 Foreword by Dr. Ingo Wandelt Some notes on the use of the dictionary as compiled by Dr. Ingo Wandelt, present the most frequently used Indonesian The Dictionary on Comprehensive Security in Indonesia presents modern-day Indonesian Terminology, acronyms and abbreviations from the security sector. security and military Terminology as they appear in texts and written material in their respective referential contexts.

This is provided in volume II that is dedicated to those terminological entries that have at least one syllable of acronymic or abbreviation equivalents.

Jakarta, November 2009 The first volume contains about 20.500 entries ordered alphabetically from their extended forms of, followed by their acronymic and abbreviations forms, and their respective German and English equivalents. It thereby offers the user an access to modern German and English security-related Terminology. A lot of work went into aligning German and English equivalents, languages which possess quite distinctive security and military Terminology in their own right. In most cases the German- language equivalents will be more complex and specific than the English-language terms that tend to be more compressed. A future work should be devoted to access the Indonesian Terminology

Schade, Ph.D. ii Abstract In my dissertation “Atomic Apocalypse – ‘Nuclear Fiction’ in German Literature and Culture,” I investigate the portrayal of the nuclear age and its most dreaded fantasy, the nuclear apocalypse, in German fictionalizations and cultural writings. My selection contains texts of disparate natures and provenance: about fifty plays, novels, audio plays, treatises, narratives, films from 1946 to 2009. I regard these texts as a genre of their own and attempt a description of the various elements that tie them together. The fascination with the end of the world that high and popular culture have developed after 9/11 partially originated from the tradition of nuclear fiction since 1945. The Cold War has produced strong and lasting apocalyptic images in German culture that reject the traditional biblical apocalypse and that draw up a new worldview. In particular, German nuclear fiction sees the atomic apocalypse as another step towards the technical facilitation of genocide, preceded by the Jewish Holocaust with its gas chambers and ovens.

  • Patterns of Global Terrorism 1999
    U.S. Department of State, April 2000 Introduction The US Government continues its commitment to use all tools necessary—including international diplomacy, law enforcement, intelligence collection and sharing, and military force—to counter current terrorist threats and hold terrorists accountable for past actions. Terrorists seek refuge in “swamps” where government control is weak or governments are sympathetic. We seek to drain these swamps. Through international and domestic legislation and strengthened law enforcement, the United States seeks to limit the room in which terrorists can move, plan, raise funds, and operate. Our goal is to eliminate terrorist safehavens, dry up their sources of revenue, break up their cells, disrupt their movements, and criminalize their behavior. We work closely with other countries to increase international political will to limit all aspects of terrorists’ efforts. US counterterrorist policies are tailored to combat what we believe to be the shifting trends in terrorism. One trend is the shift from well-organized, localized groups supported by state sponsors to loosely organized, international networks of terrorists. Such a network supported the failed attempt to smuggle explosives material and detonating devices into Seattle in December. With the decrease of state funding, these loosely networked individuals and groups have turned increasingly to other sources of funding, including private sponsorship, narcotrafficking, crime, and illegal trade. This shift parallels a change from primarily politically motivated terrorism to terrorism that is more religiously or ideologically motivated. Another trend is the shift eastward of the locus of terrorism from the Middle East to South Asia, specifically Afghanistan. As most Middle Eastern governments have strengthened their counterterrorist response, terrorists and their organizations have sought safehaven in areas where they can operate with impunity.

  • U.S. Department of State, 1991 Patterns of Global Terrorism
    Terrorism Resources Patterns of Global Terrorism: 1991 Office of the Secretary of State Office of the Coordiantor for Couterterrorism Released April 1991 Table of Contents Introduction The Year in Review Africa Overview Asia Overview Western European Overview Latin America Overview Middle East Overview Overview of State-Sponsored Terrorism Appendix A: Chronology of Significant Terrorist Incidents, 1991 Appendix B: Background Information on Terrorist Groups Patterns of Global Terrorism: 1991 The Year in Review The number of international terrorist incidents rose in 1991 as a result of the Persian Gulf war, when terrorists in many regions of the world attacked targets belonging to the international coalition opposed to Saddam Hussein. Most of these were minor incidents, resulting only in property damage. War-related attacks brought the total number of international terrorist incidents in 1991 to 557, up from 456 in 1990. Fully half of the incidents in 1991 occurred during January and February, while Operation Desert Storm was under way. After the war, however, the number of terrorist incidents dropped sharply and actually fell below 1990 levels. Several events in 1991 revealed the threat and extent of state-sponsored terrorism, particularly as practiced by Iraq, Libya, and Iran. In the months following Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, Iraq issued repeated exhortations to terrorists to strike at coalition targets worldwide. Terrorists of many stripes embraced Saddam Hussein and publicly vowed to launch attacks in the event of war. During Operation Desert Storm, we recorded 275 terrorist incidents. Most of these attacks, however, were sporadic, uncoordinated, and low-level incidents. Only a small percentage resulted in deaths, significant injuries, or property damage.

  • Active Shooter Training SAFETY & SECURITY ST
    Active Shooter Training SAFETY & SECURITY ST. BONAVENTURE UNIVERSITY Active Shooter/ Dangerous Person What is an Active Shooter? The Department of Homeland Security defines an active shooter as “an individual actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill people in a confined and populated area”. The situation occurs rapidly and without warning. The shooter’s objective may be a specific target such as an estranged spouse or former boss but generally victims are selected at random. Most incidents end in 4 - 12 minutes. The average law enforcement response is 18 minutes so the arrival of Law Enforcement may have little effect on the outcome. The shooter often commits suicide or is looking for “suicide by cop.” Individuals need to prepare physically and mentally to respond to an active shooter incident. What is an Dangerous Person? . A Dangerous Person is someone who may be making threatening actions or displaying a weapon on campus . A Dangerous Person may possess or use weapons other than a firearm, such as a knife, improvised explosive device or mace . SBU will respond to a Dangerous Person in the same manner as an Active Shooter Active Shooter Trends 2000-2016 INCIDENTS Some Known Active Shooters Eric Harris & Dylan Kiebold James Holmes Adam Lanza Columbine High School Aurora, CO Newtown, CT Seung-Hui Cho Dr Amy Bishop Jared Lee Loughner Virginia Tech University of Alabama Tucson, AZ COLUMBINE HIGH SCHOOL • Occurred on April 20, 1999 in Jefferson County, Colorado, by Eric Harris and Dylan Kiebold • Used liquid petroleum tanks, pipe
