The Iron Fist vs. the Microchip Abstract This article focuses on how information and communication technology (ICT) influences the behavior of authoritarian regimes. Modern information and communication tools can challenge authoritarian rule, but the same technology can be used by savvy regimes to buttress their own interests. The relationship of technology and political power is more accurately conceived of as a contested space in which competitors vie for dominance and as a neutral tool that is blind to value judgments of good versus evil. A realist understanding of the nature and limits of technology is vital in order to truly evaluate how ICT impacts the relative strength of intransigent regimes fighting to stay in power and those on the disadvantaged side of power agitating for change.

Lessons from Japan: Resilience after Tokyo and Fukushima Abstract In the spring of 1995 Japan experienced the world’s first major terrorist attack using chemical weapons by a little-known religious cult called Aum Shinrikyo. The attack on the Tokyo subway, which killed 13 people, was the first lethal case of a non-state actor using a chemical agent against a civilian population. In March 2011, following a 9.0 magnitude earthquake in Japan, the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactor experienced a full meltdown releasing radiation into the surrounding area. The seemingly unhurried government reaction provided conflicting information to Japanese citizens, slowing evacuation and protective actions. Government failure is cited as a significant factor in the severity of the nuclear disaster in three investigations conducted after the incident.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Strategic Security by an authorized editor of Scholar Commons. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Cultural Theory and Acceptance-Based Security Strategies for Humanitarian Aid Workers Abstract Humanitarian aid agencies have relied primarily on acceptance as their primary risk, or security, management strategy for well over a decade. Evidence suggests, however, that this strategy has become ineffective, as the number of targeted attacks against humanitarian aid workers has been steadily increasing over the past two decades. Despite the urgency of the situation, aid agencies have struggled to effectively implement new strategies and still rely primarily on acceptance as a mitigating strategy. This article examines the limitations of acceptance as practiced by humanitarian aid agencies as a strategy against targeted attacks and the challenges in adopting new strategies. The article uses Cultural Theory to explain these limitations and challenges and concludes with recommendations based on that theory for a new approach to security strategies that takes into account the social milieu of both aid workers and their potential attackers.

  • Strong Bonds Fact Sheet: Working with Young People : Talking to Families of Young People with Complex Needs
    Strong Bonds Fact Sheet: Working with Young People : Talking to Families of Young People with Complex Needs There are many different pathways that can lead a young person to engage in health risk behaviours. Some young people will enter their teenage years with a history of childhood problems or issues, e.g. family violence, abuse, parental mental illness. Other young people reach adolescence and their health declines as they begin to experience mental health issues or engage in substance abuse. Others engage in temporary risk-taking behaviours that are not preceded by nor followed by other risk behaviours.1 In all these cases, family factors may have played a significant role, or there may have been less influence from family and more from other areas of a young person’s life, e.g. individual traits, school, peers, community expectations. Even families that have had a significant influence on adolescent behaviour, may have been doing the best they could under difficult circumstances. Additionally, traumatic experiences may have affected all family members. It is important, therefore, to keep an open mind in regard to the level of influence that a family has had on a young person’s needs or problems, and the extent to which they acted in good faith. Feelings connections with children, if both parties are receptive.
