CJ 530 Approaches to Counter Terrorism

Prompt: For this short paper, you will explore alternative approaches to counterterrorism. Over the years, counterterrorism experts have categorized counterterrorism approaches in five different categories. These categories include coercive, proactive, persuasive, defensive, and long term. For many years, the American strategy has been primarily coercive in nature. However, it is important to understand that a certain degree of overlap exists (by design) among these approaches, and that a more effective and comprehensive strategy would encompass approaches from many if not all of the five categories.
 
For this assignment, you will choose two approaches from categories other than “coercive.” Specifically, you will address the following critical elements:
 
 How can these two approaches be used to complement the United States’ current use of the coercive approach?
 
 When should these approaches be used and how?
 
 What are the benefits of these approaches, and how do these benefits counterbalance the negatives from the coercive approach?
 
There are no right or wrong answers. The goal of this assignment is to make a valid argument and support it with scholarly facts and resources. You must consider how implementing numerous complementary approaches to counterterrorism can ultimately lead to a more comprehensive strategy.
 
Rubric Guidelines for Submission: Your paper should be a 3- to 5-page Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, one-inch margins, and at least two sources cited in APA format.
 
I have attached the rubric to this question for you reference and also for clarification on what specifically needs to be addressed. Thank you!
