TERRORISM AND THE DICTATORSHIP OF THE MOMENT
Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2005, Vol 15, Issue 3
Abstract
“The progress of civilization brings about a terrifying and abject…” These words are used by Brigadier-General (retires) Gheorghe VADUVA, PhD, in one of his studies on the terrorist phenomenon. He asserts that, nowadays, terrorism spreads rapidly. Undoubtedly, the development of the potential of defence and counteracting this disease of the XXIst century only has as a result the evolution of the insanity of violent terrorist actions. The modern and elevated solutions designed to protect the society from terrorist threats make terrorist actions become more diversified, and, with the help help of the latest technological discoveries of humankind, terrorists create chaos through feelings of panic and incertitude at a planetary level.
