Public Agenda Special Report: Terrorism
Topic: War on Terrorism 2:02 pm EDT, Oct  9, 2001

"Public Agenda Online has recently released a special report focused on terrorism, covering both public opinion and policy issues. The report's brief Overview explains some of the ways in which the United States is entering new territory in its efforts to deal with the recent terrorist attacks and summarizes some of the policy proposals. The Public Opinion section of the special reviews many of the public opinion polls on issues related to the attacks and the aftermath. The extensive links in this section, to on-site graphs and off-site studies, make this a rich resource for anyone interest in public opinion polls in general or public opinion related to 9-11 events in particular. The Fact File offers quick graphical information such as Total international terrorist attacks by region, 2000 and Countries that support terrorism (according to the US State Department)."

The September 11th Source Books, Volume I: Terrorism and U.S. Policy
Topic: War on Terrorism 11:10 pm EDT, Oct  8, 2001

"The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks [...] resulted in a new and extraordinary emphasis by the Bush administration on combating terrorism. During the last ten days key administration officials [...] have repeatedly emphasized that their long-term objective is the destruction of terrorism [...] Terrorism, however, was hardly ignored in previous administrations. [...] the Reagan administration, [...] executive branch agencies, [...] Congressional bodies, [...] General Accounting Office, [...] The following documents, some of which were obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, include assessments of the terrorist threat and a CIA profile of Usama bin Ladin, presidential and Defense Department policy directives, the details about U.S. response to specific terrorist attacks, and evaluations of U.S. government preparedness to deal with terrorism."

The Effects of September 11 on the Leading Search Engine
Topic: War on Terrorism 11:04 pm EDT, Oct  8, 2001

"The apparent terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 changed the skyscape of New York City, and the political and emotional landscape of the United States. The attack may have also changed how the leading search engine, Google, thinks of itself. This article examines how people used the Internet in general, and Google in particular, to seek and to deliver desperately wanted information about the lives lost and damage inflicted by the attacks."

Networks, Netwars, and the Fight for the Future
Topic: Miscellaneous 10:54 pm EDT, Oct  8, 2001

"Netwar is an emerging mode of conflict in which the protagonists - ranging from terrorist and criminal organizations on the dark side, to militant social activists on the bright side - use network forms of organization, doctrine, strategy, and technology attuned to the information age. The practice of netwar is well ahead of theory, as both civil and uncivil society actors are increasingly engaging in this new way of fighting. We suggest how the theory of netwar may be improved by drawing on academic perspectives on networks, especially those about organizational network analysis. As for practice, strategists and policymakers in Washington and elsewhere have begun to discern the dark side of the network phenomenon - especially in the wake of the "attack on America" perpetrated apparently by Osama bin Laden's terror network. But they still have much work to do to begin harnessing the bright side, by formulating strategies that will enable state and civil-society actors to work together better."
