Typologies and Classification of Terrorist Organizations

Instructions Typologies and Classification of Terrorist Organizations As you have learned in this unit, there are several typologies and classification systems of terrorism both in the United States and abroad. Typologies and classification systems are important when assessing the different types of terrorist organizations that exist, and the specific geographic areas in which they reside. For this essay assignment, use the CSU Online Library or an outside source to find scholarly resources such as eBooks or journal articles written about a relevant and existing domestic or international terrorist organization. Your essay should address the following: Explain the following typologies: state terrorism, state-sponsored terrorism, and state-enabled terrorism. Explain ideologies of left-wing and right-wing terrorism. Outline at least one country and one terrorist organization in that country that has been deemed a “state-sponsor” of terrorism by the United States. Why is this country considered a state-sponsor of terrorism? What sanctions has the United States implemented against the country outlined? Does this nation provide a safe haven for terrorists? If so, for what groups? Do you believe that the country outlined has a chance of being taken off the state sponsors of terrorism list? Why, or why not? Is this country considered a “failed-state”? Why, or why not? What characteristics of a failed state does this country have? (Please be sure to thoroughly read page 194 in your textbook, which explains the five characteristics of failed states.) What role does the United States Department of State have in the determination of state-sponsored nations? How do the four waves of terrorism relate to the group in which you have chosen? Your essay must be at least 750 words in length using size 12-point, Times New Roman font, and double-spaced. Use APA style guidelines to format in-text citations for all quoted and paraphrased material. Title and reference pages are required; an abstract is not required. Title and reference pages do not count towards the minimum length requirements.

domestic pre- and post-9/11 terrorist event.

nstructions In Unit VII, submit your research paper on your chosen domestic pre- and post-9/11 terrorist event. The research paper must be written using the following outline structure: Title page Introduction: In this section, identify the two terrorist events that have been previously selected, and briefly explain why these events serve as good comparison points for evaluating how terrorist activities have evolved over time.         Pre-9/11 terrorist event: In this section, describe the first terrorist event that is being used for comparison. The description of this terrorist event must include the nature of the event, methods used by the terrorists, and eventual outcome of the event. Post-9/11 terrorist event: In this section, describe the second terrorist event that is being used for comparison. The description of this terrorist event must include the nature of the event, methods used by the terrorists, and eventual outcome of the event. Terrorist events comparison: In this section, compare and contrast the two terrorist events that were described in the previous sections. Suggested areas for comparison include (1) motivations for attacks, (2) methods of attack, (3) impact on society, and (4) lessons learned from attacks that can be used to develop counterterrorist strategies. You should also discuss how terrorist strategies have evolved from the first event to the second event.   Summary and conclusions: In this section, summarize the evolution of terrorism based upon the two selected events.  References: Provide a reference list. While the level of detail in each section of the research paper will vary, it is expected that the final paper will be at least three pages in length, not counting the title and reference pages. Adhere to APA Style when constructing this assignment, including in-text citations and references for all sources that are used. Please note that no abstract is needed.

Suggest three steps the hospital could take to ensure its survival for the next five years and justify your selections.

Imagine you are the corporate “turn-around” specialist who has been hired to save a 400-bed hospital in a large metropolitan area. It faces competition from two well-managed teaching hospitals, has experienced declining occupancy rates, and has been losing money for six years. Common sense and good business thinking says that the hospital should be closed. Political consideration will not allow that to happen. Suggest three steps the hospital could take to ensure its survival for the next five years and justify your selections. In replies to peers, provide additional steps that have not already been discussed and explain how you think these will help the hospital survive.
