The term "terrorism" is used for a lot of different terroristic organizations. Although their motives are vastly different they share common patterns of evolutionary development. At the beginning terrorist groups arise out of an extremist milieu & start to horrify the public opinion & society by planning & accomplishing their first steps of terrorist action. The achieved effect supplies the organization with more & more supporters, which allows the terrorist group to start a more professional & severe sequence of action. But this does not contain a guarantee of successful & ongoing terrorist action per se. Much to the contrary, terrorist organizations start to lose their support by acting in a more & more professional & brutalized manner & because of internal disavowals. Furthermore their power of impact is diminished, & in the end the organization splits up & proclaims its voluntary liquidation. The consequence is: Terrorist organizations aren't survivable in the long run. Adapted from the source document.

Although both the IGC 2000 & the EU's internal reforms have concentrated on guaranteeing the necessary efficiency of the institutions, it is still an open question whether they will enable the EU institutional framework to successfully incorporate a number of new member states. Moreover, according to the Nice declaration & especially after the failure of the Nice referendum in Ireland, the focus is increasingly on enhancing the legitimacy of the EU. As this paper takes an institutions-based approach, considering in turn the main issues concerning the European Council, the Commission, the Council of Ministers, & the European Parliament, it tackles both of these two guiding principles of current reforms -- efficiency & legitimacy. 31 References.

Examines the growth of Amnesty International's (AI's) membership, status, & mandate since its founding in 1961, particularly in Germany. The expansion of AI activities from work on behalf of political prisoners to opposition to the death penalty & denouncing terrorist activities is described. Sources of AI's success, in particular, its neutrality, are discussed. Its role as a documentation center, news agency, supporter of citizen initiatives, international network, & lobbyist for the politically persecuted is analyzed. Questions regarding the future role of AI & concerns about finances are raised. It is concluded that what distinguishes AI from classic social movements is its ability to mobilize diffused worldwide action on behalf of nameless victims. T. Arnold
