The trade of these technologies is governed by export controls. Designation of technologies as “dual-use” and export control regimes can be considered as securitisation of such technologies. Securitisation refers to the discursive construction of existential threats. This article seeks to understand which actors desire securitisation or its opposite, desecuritisation, of technology. The contribution of this research is twofold. Firstly, securitisation of technology has implications for understanding defence and security in contemporary Europe. Secondly, identifying the actors involved in (de)securitisation allows for the analysis of their different roles in determining security discourses around technologies. The article builds on the literature on securitisation theory. Then it explores the EU-level export control regimes and afterwards focuses on a single case study of the Netherlands both as representative of smaller European states with an SME-heavy defence sector and as an example of an expanded export control regime by a member state. To conduct the analysis, I use the data obtained through a workshop with representatives of Dutch defence companies as well as a survey that has been answered by security and defence experts.","PeriodicalId":35155,"journal":{"name":"Defence Studies","volume":"86 1","pages":"665 - 686"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139324123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It aimed to identify the factors that influence the soldiers to get immune from the perpetual fear of Death. A sample of 415 soldiers has been conducted with the help of a self-structured interview. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) highlights duty, honor, and country; the military slogan and war cry; leadership& training; Regiment pride or community Pride;The desire to win war and go home; Avenging The Matrydom & Atitude Towards Enemy; Personal Gratification and commitment to Brothers in ARMS & Commitment towards nation are the major Combat Motivational factors in the Indian army. Combat Motivation is confirmed as an eighth factor model in the army by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The study suggests using commitment-based leadership strategies and tactics in the army that increase the motivation to get immune from the perpetual fear of Death of soldiers from the selected sample. The information obtained from this study can provide a framework to assist Army leaders, Commanders, and training and development for future soldiers.KEYWORDS: Combat motivationthe military systemIndian armymartyrs Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributors ArchanaArchana, is a PhD Research Scholar in the Department of Management Studies, Graphic Era Deemed to be University, Dehradun, India.OP SoniOP Soni, Maj Gen.

People with Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) may be particularly vulnerable and have greater difficulty recovering from the resultant emotional and financial hardships. In order to build capacity in the neurorehabilitation sector, it is necessary to determine whether clinicians currently encounter this issue and what prevention and intervention approaches have been found effective. This scoping study aimed to explore clinicians' exposure to and experiences with cyberscams in their adult clients with ABI.Method: Participants were clinicians recruited from multidisciplinary networks across Australia and New Zealand. Eligible participants (n = 101) completed an online customised survey.Results: More than half (53.46%) the participants had one or more clients affected by cyberscams, predominantly romance scams. Cognitive impairments and loneliness were reportedly associated with increased vulnerability. Cyberscams impacted treatment provision and were emotionally challenging for participants. No highly effective interventions were identified.Conclusions: These findings indicate that cyberscams are a clinical issue relevant to neurorehabilitation providers, with prevalence studies now required. The lack of effective interventions identified underscores the need for the development of evidence-based prevention and treatment approaches to ultimately help people with ABI safely participate in online life.","PeriodicalId":35155,"journal":{"name":"Defence Studies","volume":"12 1","pages":"229-244"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82196773","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
