• Threat Response Theories Written Analysis
This week we discussed how the fine line the government walks with regards to security is defined by three threat response theories which define a population's behavior responses to external threats.
Those three theories included the Deterrence Theory, the Terror Management Theory and the Protection Motivation Theory.
For this essay, you should select the threat response theory you believe is the best approach to a national threat (natural or manmade).
Next, in a 2+ page essay;
• describe your selected theory in detail,
• select a past real world threat situation (i.e. hurricane, earthquake or terror attack) and explain how the theory you selected would provide the best outcome in the national threat situation you selected.
• Provide at least three references to support your position.
