The Rings of Resilience Model (kartoniertes Buch)

For open societies, combating terrorism is a balancing act between security, freedom and prosperity due to their vulnerabilities. This book argues in favour of countering this strategic vulnerability with the concept of strategic resilience. It analyses in detail the steps involved in building up such resilience through material, social and psychological resources and outlines nine central areas of action in a model. This model is validated by detailed case studies from the UK and Singapore and offers practical recommendations for policymakers, security professionals and academics concerned with societal resilience and deterring terrorists.
