Sommario/riassunto

NIST Special Publication 800-73 (http://piv.nist.gov) provides technical specifications for Personal Identity Verification (PIV) cards. However, it does not contain a complete card management specification for PIV systems. This report provides an overview of card management



systems, identifies generic card management requirements, and considers some technical approaches to filling the existing gaps in PIV card management. The primary guiding principles in selecting technical approaches for consideration are that they should require no changes to the existing PIV specifications and should conform to applicable formal standards. Expanding the PIV command set to include management and personalization would result in a higher level of consistency and testability for PIV card issuance processes, enhanced ability to outsource various card management components and functions, and improved overall security for the federal PIV framework.

Sommario/riassunto

Social movements have an elusive power but one that is altogether real. From the French and American revolutions to the post-Soviet, ethnic and terrorist movements of today, contentious politics exercises a fleeting but powerful influence on politics, society and international relations. This study surveys the modern history of the modern social movements in the West and their diffusion to the global South through war, colonialism and diffusion, and it puts forward a theory to explain its cyclical surges and declines. It offers an interpretation of the power of movements that emphasizes effects on the lives of militants, policy reforms, political institutions and cultural change. The book focuses on the rise and fall of social movements as part of contentious politics in general and as the outcome of changes in political opportunities and constraints, state strategy, the new media of communication and transnational diffusion.
