Terrorism and Counter-Terrorism
ISBN: 9781405139427 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Undoubtedly, the events of September 11, 2001 served as a wake-up call to the scourge of global terrorism facing twenty-first century societies. But was the attack on the World Trade Center a crime or an act of war? Is seemingly indiscriminate violence inflicted on civilians ever morally justified? And should society's response always be in kind--with blind, destructive violence? For that matter, are all civilians truly -innocent-? The answers are not always so simple.

ISBN: 9781402083112 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. What Is the Dual-Use Dilemma? The so-called dual-use dilemma arises in the context of research in the biological and other sciences as a consequence of the fact that one and the same piece of sci- tific research sometimes has the potential to be used for harm as well as for good. A dual-use dilemma is an ethical dilemma, and an ethical dilemma for the researcher (and for those who have the power or authority to assist or impede the researcher s work, e. g., governments). It is an ethical dilemma since it is about promoting good in the context of the potential for also causing harm, e. g., the...
