    H-Diplo | ISSF POLICY Series America and the World—2017 and Beyond Going Rogue in the Age of Trump Essay by Seth Jacobs, Boston College Published on 15 June 2017 | issforum.org Editors: Robert Jervis, Francis Gavin, Joshua Rovner, and Diane Labrosse Web and Production Editor: George Fujii Shortlink: http://tiny.cc/PR-1-5AO Permalink: http://issforum.org/roundtables/policy/1-5AO-going-rogue PDF URL: http://issforum.org/ISSF/PDF/Policy-Roundtable-1-5AO.pdf ith a nihilistic wild man in the White House, it is time for America’s diplomats to embrace their W historic rebelliousness. Donald Trump has only been president for a few months, but he has already done more to debase United States foreign policy than any chief executive in memory. He has gutted the State Department, purging its senior leadership and vowing to slash its budget by over one-third. He has scuttled the Trans-Pacific Partnership, condemned the North American Free Trade Agreement, called the North Atlantic Treaty Organization ‘obsolete,’ and threatened to defund the United Nations. He has harangued or otherwise insulted U.S. allies like German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe while cozying up to dictators like Russian President Vladimir Putin and Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. He has flip-flopped on such crucial matters as the ‘one China policy’ and the ‘two-state formula’ for Israeli-Palestinian peace. He has ratcheted up tensions with North Korea, approved an ill-thought-out mission to Yemen, and launched massive but ultimately meaningless assaults in Afghanistan and Syria.

  • Evidence from the Yakuza∗
    Enforcement against Organized Crime Fosters Illegal Markets: Evidence from the Yakuza∗ Tetsuya Hoshino† Takuma Kamada‡ August, 2020 Abstract The Yakuza Exclusion Ordinances (YEOs) have been implemented at different times across pre- fectures in Japan, where it is not illegal to organize or join criminal organizations—the yakuza. The YEOs indirectly regulate on the yakuza by prohibiting non-yakuza citizens from providing any benefit to them. In Japan, organized fraud has been a serious issue, accounting for almost half of the total financial damage by all property crimes. Difference-in-differences estimates indicate that (i) the YEOs increase the revenue from organized fraud and (ii) the YEOs’ effects are greater in regions with lower concentration levels of yakuza syndicates. Additional evidence suggests that both current and former yakuza members engage in the fraud in the presence of the YEOs. One policy implication is that the rehabilitation assistance for former yakuza members can be effectively implemented in regions with lower concentration of yakuza syndicates.

  • Theories of Organized Criminal Behavior
    LYMAMC02_0131730363.qxd 12/17/08 3:19 PM Page 59 2 THEORIES OF ORGANIZED CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR This chapter will enable you to: • Understand the fundamentals behind • Learn about social disorganization rational choice theory theories of crime • See how deterrence theory affects • Explain the enterprise theory crime and personal decisions to of organized crime commit crime • Learn how organized crime can be • Learn about theories of crime explained by organizational theory INTRODUCTION In 1993, Medellin cartel founder Pablo Escobar was gunned down by police on the rooftop of his hideout in Medellin, Colombia. At the time of his death, Escobar was thought to be worth an estimated $2 billion, which he purportedly earned during more than a decade of illicit cocaine trafficking. His wealth afforded him a luxurious mansion, expensive cars, and worldwide recognition as a cunning, calculating, and ruthless criminal mastermind. The rise of Escobar to power is like that of many other violent criminals before him. Indeed, as history has shown, major organized crime figures such as Meyer Lansky and Lucky Luciano, the El Rukinses, Jeff Fort, and Abimael Guzmán, leader of Peru’s notorious Shining Path, were all aggressive criminals who built large criminal enterprises during their lives. The existence of these criminals and many others like them poses many unanswered questions about the cause and development of criminal behavior. Why are some criminals but not others involved with organized crime? Is organ- ized crime a planned criminal phenomenon or a side effect of some other social problem, such as poverty or lack of education? As we seek answers to these questions, we are somewhat frustrated by the fact that little information is available to adequately explain the reasons for participating in organized crime.

  • Program Schedule Wednesday, October
    Program Schedule Wednesday, October 12 Conference Registration 8:00AM- 4:00PM Telluride Foyer F001 Aspen WORKSHOP: Introduction to Oral History 9:00 AM-4:00 PM; 12:00-1:00 PM Lunch Break This full-day workshop serves as an informative overview of the art and science of oral history from initial idea through finished product. The workshop will cover specifics within three sub- categories of oral history: Pre-Interview, Interview, and Post-Interview, including project planning, technology, funding, questions and follow-up questions, release forms, index or transcript, publication, and any other topic of interest to the attendees. Additionally, the workshop will contain interactive exercises to hone listening and interviewing skills. Troy Reeves has led the oral history program at University of Wisconsin, Madison, since June 2007. Before that he directed the Idaho Oral History Center from 1999-2006. In both of those positions, Reeves has overseen the key components of managing an oral history program – gathering, preserving, and providing access to recorded interviews, as well as educating interested individuals about the art and science of oral history. Jennifer Abraham Cramer has been in the field of oral history since 1996, and has been the Director of Louisiana State University’s T. Harry Williams Center for Oral History since 2004, where she has overseen a state-wide initiative to collect oral histories about 20th and 21st Century Louisiana. She has significantly increased the size of the collection by fostering partnerships and collaborations with community members, scholars, and researchers. As director, she has overseen the processing, preservation, digitization, and public access to the vast collections.
