From the Paper
"On a bright late summer morning, people across America got up and prepared to go to work, school and errands as usual. They had no way of knowing that just around 9 a.m Eastern time, our world was going to change forever. Once we all started to ask why and how such a horrific thing could happen, some causes-and some hidden enemies to the United States-showed themselves.We know that Islamic extremists (al Qaeda) consider the West in general and America in particular to be a nation of "infidels," basically "unclean." And we know that many of these al Qaeda activists, led by Osama bin Laden, allegedly have never "forgiven" infidel Americans from trampling their lands during the Gulf War-and this is their given reason for wanting to strike back. They call their actions in killing Americans part of a "jihad," or "holy war." A Muslim who dies under the circumstances of bringing about the death of infidels is a hero and a martyr."

Hence sociological as well as theoretical analysis of the event under consideration provide a deeper insight into the much-neglected perspective on the issue.
From the Paper
"With skyscrapers falling apart, media could not help but make headlines as well as big bucks. However, it did a great job in presenting various viewpoints thereby uncovering the possible motives behind such ruthless act of violence. Many believed and shared the similar notion with the media saying that all of it happened as a result of the rat race for the ?viral power? (Arthur & Kroker). However, most of the people be it experts, scholars, social scientists as well as politicians considered these attacks a form of religious fanaticism. Some of the experts from the medical line of profession and many psychologists as well as psychiatrists thought the reason why some of the people could go to such a length to accomplish their vested interested and get motivated so much so as to take away their own precious lives can be the psychological illnesses as well as the obsessive commitment to one?s religion."

"The economic activity of Lower Manhattan, which is considered to be the third largest business district of U.S, was damaged considerably because of terrorist attacks. Thirty percent (28.7 million sq. ft) of Lower Manhattan office space was either damaged or destroyed. The 41-story Deutsche Bank Building, neighboring the World Trade Center, was damaged extensively; the building was considered to be unfit for habitation and was subjected to demolition."
"North American airspace was sealed for several days after the attack. The air travel reduced significantly after it's reopening, as the threat of terrorist activities still prevailed and people were much under psychological impact. The attacks led to nearly a 20% cutback in air travel capacity, and severely aggravated financial problems in the struggling U.S. Airline Industry."

Abstract
This paper provides an overall look at the success of Dell computers in the aftermath of the September 11th crisis.
From the Paper
"By the end of the quarter, Windows XP was shipping in 46 percent of consumer PC's. Sixty-two percent of desktop computers were sold with Pentium 4 chips. Mr. Dell estimated that 164 million PC's worldwide were more than three years old, and 450 million PC's contain chips running at less than 700 megahertz, about a third the speed of the fastest processors on the market today [2].
"We would expect that in the spring and in the summer, there is going to be a lot of upgrade activity going on among corporations," he said. "Certainly factors like the economic stimulus being debated right now would have some impact on that." James D. Ragan, a senior equity analyst with Crowell, Weedon & Company, a Los Angeles brokerage firm, said Dell's aggressive price cuts, which drove average system prices last quarter down $50, to $1,800, were inflicting pain upon its competitors. He said Dell should reap the benefits in the future."If you believe we're going to get a meaningful recovery, that's certainly good news for Dell shareholders," Mr. Ragan said."

"The ?International Red Cross? which has branches in over 175 countries of the world, works to provide extensive refugee relief activities to the victims of drought, war and ethnic conflicts all over the world. It was through the commitment of Clara Barton who organized the ?American Red Cross? with its headquarters in Washington, which received the support of millions of Americans who donated their time, talent, and financial resources to this voluntary organization. And since 1943, the month of March has been considered to be ?Red Cross Month? to recognize the lifesaving efforts of the organization."

Abstract
This paper studies how the terror attacks on September 11th affected the U.S. economy and the response of its fiscal policy. The author examines several contributing factors: (1) U.S. monetary policy; (2) fiscal policy; (3) supply side theory/policy; (4) inflation; (5) unemployment and (6) business cycles. In each of these areas, the paper demonstrates how monetary and fiscal policy worked together to provide ample and rapid stimulus during the economic downturn. The paper also contends that the impact of 9/11 on overall aggregate demand was mitigated somewhat by the increase in government spending aimed at bolstering homeland security and fighting the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

On September 5, 2001, the face amount of marketable U.S. government and federal agency securities held in custody by the Federal Reserve Banks for foreign official and international accounts was $719,895 million, a change of $ +3,191 million for the week.

The paper also includes some of the different ways that the attacks affected the author, including writing letters to the editors of major newspapers and magazines about their personal feelings of despair.
From the Paper
"I resolved, however, to put my thoughts on paper. I began penning several letters to editors of national newspapers and magazines. I pored over my writing, and when I put words on paper, I felt that mine were the only words that would bring our world from the brink of further disaster. We all lost something dear on September 11th, and for me, that something dear was my peace of mind. I truly felt that our carefree days were over, and without the knowledge and understanding I would impart to the world through my essays and letters, those carefree days would never return."

Abstract
A close look at the September 11th terrorist attacks and the multifaceted implications for United States. The author looks at foreign policy, security arrangements and the military and discusses the end of U.S. cultural isolationism. Finally the author looks at the move to multi-lateralism and the changing role of the States in the rest of the world.
From the Paper
"In his book, The Coming Anarchy, Robert Kaplan chillingly pointed to stateless terrorists being better equipped and to an America bathed in ?entertainment culture? heading inexorably towards ?something unpleasant?. The terrorist attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001 have certainly sparked much debate over the possible implications for world order, security and possible conflict. The irony may be that notwithstanding the pain and anguish of the victims and their friends and families, the United States may emerge with better foreign policy and a clearer world military role."

Dylan Thomas and September 11th, 2002.
A paper which discusses the relevance of Dylan Thomas' poetry to society today, especially after the terrorist attacks of September 11th.

Abstract
By examining several of Dylan Thomas' poems, the paper shows how his continuous themes of the unity of life, the continuing process of life and death, and the life-link between generations are all relevant to society today, despite the fact that Thomas has been dead for over 50 years. The paper shows that in the wake of September 11th, his works, though not exactly comforting, do provide an outlet for a nation suddenly forced to deal with the harsh realities of life and death.
From the Paper
"A final strength of Thomas?s work is that he asks hard questions without proposing easy answers. He accepts death in the sense that he knows it is a part of life and must be, but he offers no platitudes about its goodness or rightness. Indeed, in one of his most famous poems, he urges, ?Do not go gentle into that good night. / Rage, rage against the dying of the light.? In another poem, ?Out of the Pit,? he questions, ?[W]here?s God?s my Shepherd, God is Love? / No loving shepherd in this upside life.? In his avoidance of the ?quick fix,? Thomas respects his own?and his readers??fear and hatred of death while acknowledging its reality. "

Aftermath of September 11th, 2002.

Abstract
The paper shows that after the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon, Americans are wondering if the U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East is in need of radical modification or whether the present policy should hold firm. The paper examines the suggestion that United States foreign policy has long reflected imperialist tendencies of American monopolistic capital that exemplifies the nation's quest for world supremacy.
From the Paper
"Foreign policy reflects an attempt to coexist within the boundaries of civilized reality; however, the divided interpretations of what civilized reality truly means have often clouded the very essence behind the concept of foreign policy. When the established policy does not provide for friendly relations, then the only alternative arrangement finds that the parties involved are struggling to overpower each other in an attempt to either acquire or maintain political superiority. After the September 11 attacks upon the World Trade Center and Pentagon, Americans are wondering if the US foreign policy in the Middle East is in need of radical modification or whether the present policy should hold firm. "Now more than ever, timely, detailed analysis of the changing foreign policy and security environments of Central Asia and the Middle East is essential to American security policy" (Eurasia Program)."
