The paper approaches the debate of ethnologists and cultural anthropologists in the 1970s over the relevance of quantitative vs. qualitative methods, bringing in definitions of and distinctions between pairs of concepts like emic/etic, regard eloigné/regard partagé and objective/subjective and reaching the conclusion that all perspectives should be employed according to the purpose of research. Actually, qualitative research uses quantitative data alongside other types of data from various sources (official and private documents, objects that can „tell a story”, accounts of informants and many others). Our approach continues with a description regarding the stages of qualitative research: collection and textualization of data (the ethnographic stage) and interpretation by either text analysis or construction of models and classifications. Finally, we shall discuss several principles that validate ethnological qualitative research (significance, multi-instrumentality, replicability, the ethic principle), suggesting that a most useful methodological question of qualitative research is „Why?” because even if it doesn't trigger an answer, it leads ethnologists towards a better understanding of their object.

This paper discusses the defence Science, Technology & Innovation (STI) investment within NATO. As a complex process it involves multiple stakeholders with common interest in development of knowledge through R&D activities, connecting current and future military capabilities. The objective is to generate and provide evidence-based scientific advice to decision-makers and deliver advanced solutions to national and NATO challenges. This process can generate valuable intangible assets for the Alliance in form of information and knowledge-based capital. The challenge for NATO is to manage and exploit the advantages of collective defence STI on behalf of its 29 members. The article approaches defence STI policies in comparison with power of politics and national as well as industrial interests. The attempt to quantify scientific knowledge as added value with significant return on investment unfolds the dynamics and vulnerabilities within NATO’s corporate culture. Although complexity is the main argument and pre-assumption, multidisciplinary aspects (political, economic, social, technological, and legal) are carefully examined and explored, providing a comprehensive approach of its strategic value to the Alliance.

The correlation between trade, FDI and economic growth in many developing nations had remained one of the greatest crucial problems in the economic scholars in current years mostly for those countries facing from unemployment issues and lack of skills and technological development. Our study evaluates this problem by applying Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model over the span 1970 - 2007 in Iran. We have found evidence that the relationship between FDI and population is positive and statistically significant, meaning that population is mainly characterized by foreign investors, knowledge and transfer of technology, and we can see that FDI is mainly affected by skill employers in Iran. While the relationship between FDI, Trade and GDPC are positive but insignificant, it illustrates that FDI doesn’t have any impact on both trade and growth rate in Iran. Our findings are similar with previous studies.

In the paper, the task of quantity assessment of the human factor has been considered in the determination of the unit combat capability. For determination of personal (staff) combat potential a physical drill, a combat training, a moral and psychological training, as well as, a battle experience have been taken into account as human factors. Besides this, an influence of a field and an environment conditions have been taken into account. Using these numerical data and weapon effectiveness coefficients, the method of unit combat capability (a dynamic power) calculations has been offered. In accordance to this method, first, the static power of unit has been determined, then the battle and environment conditions are been taken account.

Threats were specified and in mass in the past, and then are transformed to multi-directional, multi-dimensional, and volatile structure in early 21st century. Hence uncertainty and instability dominate operational area. Today, security is comprehended solely not military but political, economic, lawful, psychological, and technological in a holistic approach. Towards this end, global security environment may be defined with three key words: circulation, complexity, and contingency. Within this context, aim of the mission is to enforce peace and restore stability by proactive measures. However, it seems impossible to have fruitful results in peace building operations by training 21st century people with a mindset of pre-Cold War time. Hence, the study aims at revealing the need for change in curriculum of officers to get deployed in peace building operations. The study, therefore, proposes a unified body taking on nationwide responsibility to manage training operations, and lays out relevant programs and tools to be included in curriculum.

The present paper aims to analyze the political acceptance of the concept of security as it helps understanding the issue of national and global security. Power is the most influential factor that determines the behavior of states in the international system and therefore it is the main enemy concerning global peace and order. It is worth to highlight how strategic culture can improve the perception of security. Each state focuses upon its own interests and this aspect does not guarantee that the other states will cooperate for maintaining peace and world order and this situation is continuously feeding the global insecurity. This study focuses on the concept of political culture of the United States analyzing the relationship between culture and politics within the framework of the political system.

Paper indicates the fundamental need of researches that will identify the anthropological basis of Polish security studies as it proves that only human person can be the irreducible subject of all possible security studies. The first part of the article deals with the connection between the way of perceiving man, human instrumentality, axiological horizon that he creates and the concept of security itself. The second part of the article shows the crisis as a problem area which has been organizing scientific discourse for the last 200 years and then the origins of security studies as a kind of response to that crisis are presented. The last part of the paper contains detailed justification of the need to take up in-depth research on the phenomenon of a person in security studies and detailed analysis of problems around which this research needs to be organized and carried out.

FPB-60 is a type of patrol boat built by shipyard in Indonesia to strengthen the needs of water territorial. However, the 20 years age caused a decrease in performance of the vessel. The method used was the harvard guldammer method to calculate water jet system parameters at a maximum velocity of 35 knots such as inlet diameter and nossel diameter, pump power, pump type used and other parameters to obtain Overall Propulsive Coefficient at that speed. In the calculation of water jet propulsion system design, the amount of capacity generated water jet pump system obtained was 4.15 m3 / s with flow velocity on the nozzle/jet of 28.8 m/s. Based on the value of specific swabs of suction (Nss) of 6205.49, the pump for the water jet propulsion system had considered fulfilled the cavitation limit requirement so that it could be used for (FPB-60).

As a country with the largest sea area in Asia, Indonesia will certainly encounter the threats to the maritime aspect. The aim of this paper is to make an analysis of national maritime security of concerning the regional development effect. This paper uses a SWOT approach (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats), Fuzzy Multi-criteria Decision Making (FMCDM), and Borda method. SWOT analysis is used to identify internal and external factors in national maritime security, and strategic determination. Fuzzy MCDM (FMCDM) method is used to select the right strategy in maritime security control. The Borda method is used to define the sub-strategy, priorities of the selected strategy. The result of this paper with SWOT analysis is to identify four strategies, likely Strategy 1 (SO); Strategy 2 (WO); strategy 3 (WT); Strategy 4 (ST). Based on FMCDM method, Strategy 1 (SO) has a weight of 0.256 as a third rank; Strategy 2 (WO) has a weight of 0.26 as a second rank; Strategy 3 (WT) has a weight of 0.208 as a fourth rank; Strategy 4 (ST) has a weight of 0.276 as a first rank. Then, the strategy chosen is Strategy 4 (ST). Based on Borda method, the first priority of sub-strategy from strategy 4 (ST) is to increase the percentage of State Budget for the maritime sector in the development of Navy Capability and other stakeholder to carry out the operation of sea crime action with allocation of 22,587%.
