Abstract:
Many social scientists are deeply concerned with the problem of youth cyber dependency. It is primarily caused by people’s “submergence” into the newest technological gadgets and virtual reality. In sociological lexis one can even meet such a term like “youth go online”. The author proposes a definition for that term applied to describe people who use electronic smartphones most part of their day (in some cases even like a background all day long). However we can’t diminish all advantages associated with the Internet using. It is both quick access to any information and distance education, the possibility to transfer money in a second through the whole world and other. But here the author stresses upon another side of Internet using. The paper reveals some forms of social and psychological challenges and deviance behavior while active using of virtual mass communication tools. Moreover, the article observes the most fundamental research in the sphere of sociology of youth and mass communication conducted by famous Russian and International scientists. Their studies reveal that young internet users sometimes lose a strong connection with the real world which is caused by informational overloading or “computer hunger”. On the base of the empirical data made by the Sociological School of The Moscow State University of International Relations (MGIMO-University), there was made an attempt to clarify the youth understanding of such phenomenon like internet-responsibility for the content users post and what do students mean by the term “cybersecurity”? Besides above-mentioned personal security, special attention is paid to the problem of international cyber terrorism which can cause more damage not only to companies but the whole governments. In that connection the article discloses the functioning of international organizations like United Nations, European Union and Council of Europe aimed to the prevention of destructive forms of internet using and creation of global culture of cybersecurity.

Abstract:
Terrorism is a significant issue in national and global security. Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York, USA, the fight against terrorism has continued to this day. Resistance to terrorists has also changed the stereotype of Muslims, which affects Indonesia's reputation as the largest Muslim country in the world. The Bali I bombing attacks in 2002 by Jamaah Ansharut Daulah (JAD) terrorism group reconstructed its identity as Islam Moderate and Indonesia's foreign policy. The method used is the literature study method. Literature study is all efforts made by researchers to collect various information relevant to the topic or problem that will be studied. Through the identity, Indonesia can convince the western countries that Indonesia is worth reflecting true Islam and space to involve in the international political stage. As a pioneer of the Non-Aligned Movement and track record in the region, Indonesia trusted to be a role model for the Islamic world, especially the Middle East, that Islam and democracy are compatible. Through this, Indonesia seed as a strategic country to build international cooperation against radicalism and terrorism, which still becomes a global challenge presently.

Abstract:
The article provides a comprehensive analysis of one of the most complex problems of our time — terrorism. Terrorism in modern Russia and in the world poses a real threat to the security of society and the state. The work presents the activity of the National Antiterrorism Committee in coordinating and organizing interagency interaction aimed at combating terrorism, with the involvement of civil society institutions. Particular attention is given to the legal framework for countering terrorism, which includes constant monitoring and analysis of terrorist activity, Russian legislation in this field, and the preparation and adoption of relevant legal acts aimed at increasing the effectiveness of countering terrorism. The article analyzes the work of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation on the use of criminal law measures to combat terrorist crimes using specific examples and statistics. The issues of blocking the financing channels of terrorist organizations in the course of joint activities by the Investigative Committee of Russia, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, the FSB of Russia and Rosfinmonitoring are also addressed. It is emphasized that effective cooperation between all interested departments makes it possible to achieve positive results in countering terrorism and extremism. The author proposes to minimize the consequences of terrorist crimes on the Internet related to the recruitment of new members of terrorist organizations, including among the youth. The conclusion is made that it is necessary to increase the role of the informational component for crime prevention. The mass media should be used more actively for timely and reliable posting of information related to actions by law enforcement to counter terrorist activities and educate citizens. This would make it possible to form a negative attitude towards radicalism in all its manifestations and reject any attempt to justify terror.

Abstract:
The organisation of religious ceremonies involving an above average number of participants is a challenge, not only for the church authorities, but also for the civic authorities. Such a ceremony is XXIX World Youth Day. Events are planned for many places, including at Kraków-Balice Airport, in Częstochowa in the area of the Jasna Góra monastery, in Brzegi and in Błonia Park, Kraków. The locations that have been selected to enable the announced participation of millions of the faithful in the ceremonies, and the contemporary threats existing, including even that of terrorism, mean that there is a challenge to ensure the safety and security of the participants. Coping with this means that the legal framework for the formations responsible for security in the country, and the organisers’ security staff and volunteers functioning in this particular situation, need to be defined. Such a regulation is primarily the Act of 18 March 2016 on the special solutions adopted for the organisation of the visit of His Holiness Pope Francis in the Republic of Poland and World Youth Day - Kraków 2016. The article analyses the existing legal solutions and formulates observations which, when taken into account, will result in increased safety and security during World Youth Day. They concern: the participation of security staff, stewards and volunteers, and their powers to ensure order; identification of unacceptable behaviour and items that threaten order and security; prevention of unlawful and intentional use of unmanned mobile platforms; the risk of a terrorist threat; likely locations for an attempted attack and the possible methods which might be used. The considerations that make up the content of the article lead to the formulation of recommendations, which are presented as a summary.

Abstract:
The emergence of mobilised mass movements, demanding prosperity and the elimination of injustice, has emerged in various parts of the world, without exception in the Middle East and Indonesia. This movement was dominated by educated middle-class youth, sparked the term ummah, and then formed unique solidarity to protest against the government of his country. A new concept is needed by paying attention to the novelty of these characteristics, considering the old populism concept is not relevant enough to explain it. This paper seeks to raise the concept of New Islamic Populism to answer this deficiency. Furthermore, the Al-Mukmin Ngruki Islamic Boarding School (PPIM), the Islamic boarding school often associated with terrorism, is used as the object of research to show the evolution of populism. This study uses qualitative methods and data collection techniques in the form of interviews and literature studies. This study foundthat both santri and ustaz PPIM have aspirations and characteristics, asshown by the New Islamic Populism movement.

The achievement of world peace is a humanitarian demand that humanity has sought since its existence. Despite the international and regional efforts to achieve this demand, it is still reaching its desired ambitions if conflicts, contradictions, and internal and external wars continue to justify us clearly in terms of ethnic, religious and sectarian conflict.

Abstract:
Interstate war has been on the decline since the end of the Second World War. After the Cold War ended without a grand conflagration, civil conflicts and the war on terrorism have appeared to displace interstate war as the most pressing loci of security studies. Interstate aggression has become untenable, some have argued. Cooperative grievance resolution and the powerful incentives of economic interdependence have produced a decline in the outbreak of war. Revered scholars of international security have even asked whether we should bother studying the phenomenon anymore. Intrastate conflicts, it seems, are the order of the day. We argue that the contraction of interstate war is more a function of the weight we have accorded 20th century warfare in our conceptualization of interstate war than a real decrease in states’ willingness to employ force to achieve foreign policy ends. A broader approach to interstate war is needed to capture a more consistent conceptualization of the phenomenon. We suggest a framework under which gray zone strategies represent not an emergent phenomenon but a longstanding set of tools within the broader phenomenon of interstate conflict.

Abstract:
‘Red Army Fraction’ is a youth extremist left-wing terror group that was active in the 1970–1980s on the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany. The terror group and its ideology originated mostly in Western German university circles. Most representatives of the group were descendants from wealthy families of high social standing. The ideology of the group included a mix of concepts related to social equity, preventing autocratic tendencies in the government machinery and interventions of Western countries against developing ‘third world’ countries and peoples. State security system of West Germany was unable to suppress the terror group for over two decades. The group finally announced its voluntary dissolution in 1998 due to a dramatic change in socio-political climate and general crisis of the left-wing political ideology. The growth of oppositional sentiments among present-day Russian young people is partially similar to the students’ unrest that had place in Western Europe in the 1960s and gave rise to terrorist groups. This makes the study of West Germany’s experience in countering the threat important.

Abstract:
After the pandemic of the new coronavirus infection, marked by the «lockdowns’ of 2020, the crimesituation both in Russia and in the world has reached a qualitatively new level. We can say that the thresholdof population tolerance predicted at the 12th UN Congress on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice byV.V. Luneev. Once again, the dialectical law on the transition of quantitative changes to qualitative ones wasconfirmed. It should be noted that this process continues to increase its pace in 2021: all large branches ofcrime are going into cyberspace. On this basis, the strengthening of the interaction of civil society institutionsand law enforcement agencies, especially among the youth, is becoming increasingly important. It is youngpeople who are a potential «risk group» in terrorist and cyber-terrorist crime, primarily as an object ofrecruitment. But it is young people who are the most active users of information and telecommunicationnetworks, including the Internet. In this regard, it seems that the priority lies precisely in the environment ofcivil society institutions that directly work with young people. And one of the main institutions is secondaryand higher education, and it is the network of universities that can become the flagship of the formation ofanti-terrorist ideology and skills in countering cyber terrorism.

Abstract:
Simultaneously with the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic and the introduction of a distancelearning format throughout Russia, the process of working with teachers and students to adapt them in thedigital environment is continuously ongoing. This process fully affected the Altai Territory, where the roleof the flagship of higher education was given to the Altai State University. Since the beginning of the 2020pandemic, the university has actively engaged in the field of distance learning and began to apply digitalmethods of communication with students. Dozens of scientific and practical conferences were held in anonline format, which made it possible to significantly smooth the process of adaptation to the new digitalsphere for both teachers and students.Accordingly, the increase in knowledge about the digital world has prompted interest in digitaltechnologies and their adaptation for the needs of criminology, which is directly involved in the analysisand forecasting of countering cyber terrorism. It is expected that the increased involvement of teachers inthe digital environment will lead to an increase in legal education and the youth they teach.Young people who are an active user of the Internet and, in this regard, are the object of onlinerecruitment into terrorist and extremist organizations, are interested in gaining knowledge about counteringsuch actions.To confirm the theses put forward, we carried out a criminological study of the degree of involvementof students and teachers of the Altai Territory in counter-propaganda activities in the context of partiallyremote interaction. In this article, we reflect the main results of our work.

Abstract:
Following Austria’s annexation by the Third Reich, the NPEA authorities were eager to pursue every opportunity to found new Napolas in the freshly acquired territories of the ‘Ostmark’. In the first instance, the Inspectorate took over the existing state boarding schools (Bundeserziehungsanstalten/Staatserziehungsanstalten) at Wien-Breitensee, Wien-Boerhavegasse, Traiskirchen, and the Theresianum. Secondly, beyond Vienna, numerous Napolas were also founded in the buildings of monastic foundations which had been requisitioned and expropriated by the Nazi security services. These included the abbey complexes at Göttweig, Lambach, Seckau, Vorau, and St. Paul (Spanheim), as well as the Catholic seminary at St. Veit (present-day Ljubljana-Šentvid, Slovenia). This chapter begins by charting the chequered history of the former imperial and royal (k.u.k.) cadet schools in Vienna, which were refashioned into civilian Bundeserziehungsanstalten by the Austrian socialist educational reformer Otto Glöckel immediately after World War I. During the reign of Dollfuß and Schuschnigg’s Austrofascist state, the schools were threatened from within by the terrorist activity of illegal Hitler Youth cells, and the Anschluss was ultimately welcomed by many pupils, staff, and administrators. August Heißmeyer and Otto Calliebe’s subsequent efforts to reform the schools into Napolas led to their being incorporated into the NPEA system on 13 March 1939. The chapter then treats the Inspectorate’s foundation of further Napolas in expropriated religious buildings, focusing on NPEA St. Veit as a case study. In conclusion, it outlines the ways in which both of these forms of Napolisation conformed to broader patterns of Nazification policy in Austria after the Anschluss.

Abstract:
The modern-day smartphones are the result of the technological progression that is happening in this digital world. This technological advancement has brought an incremental augmentation where these were not perceived as critical by the smartphone users. Also, the computational capability and networking competence has been dragooned constantly to maintain the momentum with the ever-expanding workload demands. This scenario has endorsed the smart gadgets such as smartphones and tablets to accomplish the growing complex challenges. In this digital era, the next generation users are substituting the conventional way of preference such as the personal computers and laptops with smartphone for the social connectedness, e-commerce, financial transaction, market updates, latest news, or even editing images. Users willingly install various mobile apps on to their smartphone and consequently providing their valuable and sensitive personal information to their service providers without thinking and knowing the security lapses and repercussions. Considering the fact, the smartphones' size and its portability, these devices are much more susceptible of being stolen, becoming jeopardized, or being exploited for various cyber-attacks and other malevolent activities. Essentially, the hackers look forward to the new mobile vulnerabilities so that they exploit the revealed vulnerability once a newer edition of the respective mobile operating system is released. In view of the fact that the smartphones are too vulnerable to various exploits, the necessity for a digital investigation entrained to establish a separate domain named mobile forensics. This established forensic domain is specialized in acquiring, extracting, analyzing, and reporting the evidence that is obtained from the smartphone devices so that the exploiting artifacts and its respective actions are determined and located. This chapter puts forward the various processes involved with the mobile forensics that can be employed for examining the evidences of various cyber incidents. Furthermore, it discusses the various vulnerabilities with the iOS and Android mobile operating systems and how they are being exploited in detail. The chapter also discusses the various approaches of data extraction and the respective industry standard for the tools that are being utilized for the same.

Abstract:
For many, the punitive turn in immigration stems from the attack on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Although 9/11 linked immigration and national security, this link occurred more in the national imagination than in practice. The day-to-day operations of Border Patrol agents do not involve intercepting terrorists or chemical weapons, nor are border agents apprehending migrants from countries on the “state sponsors of terrorism” or “terrorist safe haven” lists. Despite the rhetorical conflation of immigration with terrorism and national security, what border enforcement looks like in practice is little more than domestic crime control extended to an immigration context. The introductory chapter recounts over a decade of historical and ethnographic research on this new blend of immigration and crime control that began well before the events of September 11.

Abstract:
A few days before New Year’s Day, 2002 John Yoo and Patrick Philbin, two lawyers in the Department of Justice, drafted a memorandum for the Department of Defense. The memo was entitled Possible Habeas Jurisdiction over Aliens Held in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Shortly after the attacks on September 11, 2001, the Bush administration had announced plans to try suspected terrorists by military commission, a kind of military court. As the memo was being completed, the war in Afghanistan was still ongoing. But coalition forces had taken Kabul and other major cities and had already captured many suspected Al Qaeda members. The Bush administration feared detaining these individuals within the United States and generally rejected the criminal justice model of counterterrorism championed by previous presidents. The United States naval base at Guantanamo, the subject of the lawyers’ memo, was appealing as a long-term site for detention and trial. It was distant from the Middle East, very secure, and, as the Justice Department noted, probably free of the influence of American courts due to its location outside the territory of the United States. In time the detention camp at Guantanamo would become a source of sustained criticism around the world and a major political liability for the United States. But in late 2001, with the World Trade Center site still a smoking ruin, Guantanamo appeared to be a very attractive option to those formulating the legal response to the 9/11 attacks. Two years after the Guantanamo memo was written the New York Times reported that the CIA and the Pentagon were operating a network of offshore prisons in various foreign locations. In these overseas prisons, so reported the Times, were some of the most high-value detainees in the war on terror. Successive stories in the Washington Post revealed that a number of these “black site” prisons were in Europe, and that the CIA had flown individuals there for extensive and coercive interrogation. As the Times reported, the “suggestion that the United States might be operating secret prisons in Europe and the idea that American intelligence officers might be torturing terrorism suspects incarcerated on foreign soil have been incendiary issues across Europe in recent weeks.”

Abstract:
The decade and a half since the last review article on political geography by Reynolds and Knight (1989) in Geography In America has been one of extraordinary geopolitical transformation and change. Not only did the Cold War come to an end with the fall of the Berlin Wall and the dissolution of the Soviet Union but the spectacular terrorist attacks of September 2001 brought the “post-Cold War peace” to an end also. In the early 1990s the threat of superpower nuclear war faded as an omnipresent nightmare in international relations. Yet new threats and dangers quickly emerged to take the place of those imagined during the Cold War. Concern grew about “rogue states,” genocidal ethnonationalism, global warming, and the dangers of nuclear proliferation (Halberstam 2001; Klare 1995; Odom 1998). Fears about terrorism also grew with a series of bombings, from Paris, London, and Moscow to Oklahoma City, New York, and Atlanta. United States troops and embassies in Saudi Arabia, Tanzania, Kenya, and Yemen were the targets of terrorist attacks. But it was only after the disruption, shock, and panic of the devastating terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001 and subsequent incidents of bioterrorism that world politics was given new definition and clarity by the world’s most powerful state. The new metanarrative of geopolitics is the “war against terror.” Beyond the high dramas of geopolitics, already existing trends in everyday economic and political life deepened in the last decade and a half. New social movements have forced questions concerning the politics of identity and lifestyles onto the political agenda. The globalization of financial markets, telecommunication systems, and the Internet further rearranged governing notions of “here” and “there,” “inside” and “outside,” “near” and “far.” With global media networks broadcasting news twenty-four hours a day and the Internet spreading a world wide web, the “real” geographies of everyday life were becoming strikingly virtual as well as actual (Wark 1994; Mulgan 1997). Informationalization, and the relentless pace of techno-scientific modernity were transforming everyday life and education in the United States’ colleges and universities. Celebrated by the culture of transnational corporate capitalism, these tendencies brought enormous wealth to some, further polarizing income inequalities across the planet while also introducing unprecedented vulnerabilities and uncertainties into what was becoming “global everyday life.”
