Command and Control 2010 Analysis: CONTEST 3: The importance of interoperability 15 Jul 2011 by Jennifer Cole
The government's latest counter-terrorism strategy once again places an importance on the interoperability of the police and other agencies to respond to emergencies such as terrorist attacks. Yet, without placing a proper framework, and with constrained finances, it will be difficulty to see how interoperability will be achieved. Terrorism Emergency Response Technology UK Europe
Police Analysis: CONTEST 3: progress for transparency and evaluation? 14 Jul 2011
CONTEST 3 continues to recognise the now-established tradition that counter-terrorism strategy should be as transparent as possible. But with transparency comes robust evaluation, a mechanism that seems to be missing in the government's latest plan to deal with terrorism. Terrorism Securing Britain UK Europe
Mumbai Analysis: The Mumbai Blasts and the Indian Mujahideen 14 Jul 2011 by Shashank Joshi

Zawahiri Analysis: Chapter Two: Al-Qa'ida's New Beginning? 29 Jun 2011 by Dr Tobias Feakin
The 'information-space' is always vital for Al-Qa'ida's operational effectiveness. Its ability to make swift statements in the media and through the internet demonstrates the terror-network's potency and ability to reach a mass audience. Yet, since Bin Laden's death, we have seen the US dominate the media with stories about both the man and the organisation, demystifying both.

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab Analysis: Prevent Strategy 2011: the problem of universities 13 Jun 2011
In outlining its Prevent strategy, the UK government has identified university campuses as the new frontline in the battle against Al-Qa'ida. Yet the success of the strategy will depend largely on the willingness of universities to see the problem through the same lense as the government. Terrorism Tackling Extremism UK Europe
Prevent Strategy 2011 Analysis: The New PREVENT Strategy: Establishing Realistic Expectations 9 Jun 2011 by Valentina Soria
In conducting a review of the Prevent counter-terrorism strategy, a genuine effort has been made to recalibrate the policy. Yet, behind the rhetoric of the document, the substance of the argument risks to be lost over vague, and sometimes contradictory, terms of reference. More clarity is still required for the counter-radicalisation policy to be effective. UK Europe Tackling Extremism Terrorism
