Abstract
This article comes in two parts - the article and the notes.
Article abstract: To get hostages released without harm requires a national policy committed to that principle. With that in mind, there needs to be an understanding of the perpetrators' "objective view" of reality. These views have political, economic, psychological, cultural, ethno-religious and perceptual dimensions. Those multivariate dimensions of any hostage situation mandate policies that should be based on law enforcement and military perspectives, in order to be flexible enough to permit their consideration and continuously evaluate their national and international implications.
Part II: Notes and bibliography for Part I.
Both parts of published in IBPP Volume 10, Issue 20 - June 08, 2001.
