There is 3 questions please answer all 3 in one post.
1. How would you conceptualize terrorism? (Hartley's book pages 93-100 can be helpful) Under certain definitions of terrorism, why might the military operations of some countries be considered as terrorism, in essence making their governments terrorists?
2. Please conceptualize and operationalize “school violence?” Please carefully define this term so that it is not to be confused with those common terms (bully, for example) we use in daily conversations.
3. According to Batton and Kadleck’s research (Hartley, p. 111-126), what is the most difficult component of measuring racial profiling? What would you do to deal with the issue if you will be conducting a similar study? The references for the article is "Batton, C., & Kadleck, C. (2004). Theoretical and methodological issues in racial profiling research. Police Quarterly, 7(1), 30-64.")
