Air power has shown its usefulness throughout many wars and has been an effective tool for military interventions during the last decades. How airpower should be applied has been a highly debated topic for as long as it has been around. However, its use in humanitarian interventions is comparatively unresearched. One theorist that have received a lot of attention is John Warden and his five-ring-model. The purpose of this thesis is to test Wardens theory in humanitarian interventions, in order to contribute with research on the use of airpower in humanitarian interventions. This thesis is a comparative case study examining two similar and successful humanitarian interventions, Operation Deliberate Force and Operation Odyssey Dawn/Unified Protector. Results show that Wardens theory can not explain the success of the use of airpower in the operations. There are however some interesting similarities between the two operations that could be the key to success in humanitarian interventions. Further research is required to investigate this conclusion. / <p>Uppsatsen skriven VT 2018 under Termin 4 Officersprogrammet 16-19 med inriktning mot flyg. Examen genomförs VT 2019.</p>

L'apparente pérennité de la figure du zombie, sa résurrection périodique à des moments charnières de l'histoire et son évolution suggère qu'elle pourrait jouer un rôle symbolique au sein de la société où elle prend forme. Le mandat de cette étude consiste donc d'abord à dresser un portrait du zombie contemporain en clarifiant la provenance ainsi que les origines du mythe et en prenant bien soin de définir les caractéristiques récurrentes du monstre à travers les époques et nations. Ensuite, il tient à étudier trois différents films provenant de trois différentes époques soient : White Zombie (1932) de Victor Halperin, Dawn of the Dead (1978) de George A. Romero et 28 Days Later (2002) de Danny Boyle et Alex Garland. Ces films sont analysés en fonction de l'attitude du zombie, de ses caractéristiques, des motivations apparentes, de son pouvoir et impact sur la population. En somme, l'objectif vise ici à établir un portrait de la figure du zombie au cinéma, à donner un aperçu de son évolution, et à déterminer la nature du rôle, qu'il semble exercer sur la société représentée où il sévit.

No. of bitstreams: 1 LUCIANA BEATRIZ TELES.pdf: 968140 bytes, checksum: c649145b29263e399ed2f87ef3b9d4af (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-03-19 / The present research aims to investigate the religious motivation behind the adhesion of the members from Goiás to the Valley of the Dawn, with special emphasis on the Templo Tarajo do Amanhecer in Terezópolis de Goiás. The hypothesis elaborated presents the identity traits of the group that revealed in the research: the search for the sacred as motivation for meaning in the individual’s life within the scenario of late modernity. In this context of fluid relationships, the quest for and the experience of the sacred fill the life of the adept with a sense of belonging to a group. The study proposed here utilized the methodology of participatory observation through bibliographic review and field research, using quantitative data as a support for qualitative research. The research demonstrates that the motivation of the Valley of the Dawn members from Goiás is based on the offer of life meaning made by the doctrine; in the unifying discourse and in the similarity of the symbols that make the Valley of the Dawn narrative complement and update the earlier religious narrative of its followers; in the sense of belonging generated by the execution of ritual works in which the member sees himself responsible for maintaining his own doctrine. / A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo investigar a motivação religiosa que gera a adesão dos membros goianos ao Vale do Amanhecer, com ênfase especial no Templo Tarajo do Amanhecer em Terezópolis de Goiás. A hipótese trabalhada apresenta os fatores identitários do grupo, revelados na pesquisa: a busca do sagrado como motivação de um sentido para a vida do indivíduo, dentro do cenário da modernidade tardia. Nesse contexto de relações fluidas, a busca e vivência do sagrado enchem a vida do adepto de pertencimento ao grupo. O estudo aqui proposto utilizou a metodologia de pesquisa de observação participante através de revisão bibliográfica e pesquisa de campo utilizando os dados quantitativos como suporte para a pesquisa qualitativa. A pesquisa demonstra que a motivação dos membros goianos do Vale do Amanhecer é fundamentada na oferta de sentido para a vida dada pela doutrina; no discurso unificador e na similaridade dos símbolos que fazem com que a narrativa do Vale do Amanhecer complemente e atualize a narrativa religiosa anterior de seus adeptos; na sensação de pertencimento gerada pela execução dos trabalhos ritualísticos nos quais onde o membro se vê como responsável pela manutenção da própria doutrina.

During the last decades airpower has become a useful tool for military interventions. Earlier research argues that air operations during the first Gulf war proved that strategic bombing could be effective due to modern technology and precision guided munitions. John Warden developed a theory based on strategic bombing, where he sees the enemy as a system, which is illustrated by a five-ring-model. The theory is widely discussed in the modern airpower debate, and has also been criticized because it has not been proved in any large-N study. Therefore, this essay aims to test Wardens five-ring-model in a comparative case study where two modern air operations have been chosen for investigation. The two operations are Operation Deliberate Force that took place Bosnia, 1995, and Operation Odyssey Dawn/Unified Protector that took place in Libya, 2011. The two operations have many similarities but differ in the time it took to reach their designated goals. The results indicate that Wardens theory is not capable of explaining why the two operations differed in the time it took to achieve its goals. The operations did not act according to Wardens five-ring-model to a sufficiently large extent when other targets were more frequently attacked than the ones that Warden advocates to be the most effective. Warden states that his theory is very general and can be used for any opponent, but the results of this essay indicate that it may be to general to be able to explain the outcome of an operation.
