Economics and Terrorism
September 11, 2001
It has just been 5 years since the deadly terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centre in New York. Never in our history, has terrorism affected us so much.
Since 9/11, many things has changed. More funds were allocated towards anti-terrorism, airport restrictions became extremely tight and revenue from tourism dipped. Changes in goventment policies and even international relations. Migration and labour generation.
As Economist, we have to ask ourselfs since terrorism affects so much of our daily lives today, what does it do to the choices that we make. What are the current changes in the government policies ? Our choices of travel destinations ? Where we choose to study ? To take public transport ? Where to live ?
I believe that terrorism should now be taken account into our economic policies, models and theories considering it significance in the world today. I am interested in how terrorism affects growth of countries and read up more in that area.
I would like express my condolences to those whose lives has been affected.
