Sommario/riassunto

This paper examines the U.S. military capability to counter terrorist use of weapons of mass destruction. It describes the terrorist threat to U.S. forces and reasons why terrorists would use these types of weapons. Our current national policy, strategy and doctrine highlight the problem but show a need to improve interagency coordination and cooperation in the fight against terrorism. On the military level, combating the threat is an integral part of our strategy but needs increased emphasis on the planning level.

Sommario/riassunto

Over the last two decades, right-wing populist parties in Western Europe have gained sizable vote shares and power, much to the fascination and consternation of political observers. Meshing traditionalism and communitarian ideals, right-wing populist parties have come to represent a polar normative ideal to the New Left in Western Europe. In his dynamic study Cleavage Politics and the Populist Right, Simon Bornschier applies a cultural as well as political dimension



to analyze the parties of both the right and left in six countries. He develops a theory that integrates the role

Sommario/riassunto

Sinn und Zweck der Sozialhilfe sind politisch umstritten. Die einen wollen die Beiträge senken, um Missbrauch zu verhindern. Andere fragen provokativ, ob Sozialhilfe eigentlich Armut beseitigen kann. Ausgehend vom aktuellen Stand der Armuts­for­schung in Deutschland und der Schweiz untersucht der Sozialpädagoge Alban Knecht an vielen Bei­spie­len die aktuellen Argu­men­ta­tionen in der Sozial­politik und verschiedene sozial­rechtliche Re­ge­lungen und entwickelt auf dieser Basis Bürgergeld und Grund­einkommens-Modelle wie Kombilohn, nega­tive Ein­kommen­steuer oder RMI - als Alter­nativen zur Sozial­hilfe. Dabei unter­streicht er immer auch die Bedeutung der Sozialen Arbeit in der Armuts­be­käm­pfung und bei der sozio-kulturellen Integration.
