In addition to immense data handling issues faced are the numerous conceptual and theoretical hurdles these researchers have cleared so adeptly. The volume's chapters present many of the critical areas of analysis to which analytical frameworks like NIEMO can be put, and demonstrate what can be accomplished when a group of dedicated scholars focus their collective energy on the development of computational models of complex social systems.'--Randall Jackson, Director, Regional Research Institute, West Virginia University, US. The United States has encountered increasing levels of terrorist activity and a number of significant natural disasters in this millennium, a pattern which has also occurred globally. There has been a degree of uncertainty over their impact on the national economy. A unique contribution towards mitigation is offered in this book, which develops a national economic impact model to estimate the effects of simulated terrorist attacks and real world natural disasters on individual US States and economic sectors. The model, NIEMO (The National Interstate Economic Model), examines interindustry relationships and interregional trade, and presents a multiregional input-output analysis of the economic impact resulting from these events. Students and researchers in regional science, planning, economics and geography will find this book offers an informative perspective. Practitioners, policy makers and general readers interested in public policy issues will appreciate the insights. 000717821 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000717821 650_0 $$aTerrorism$$xEconomic aspects$$zUnited States. 000717821 650_0 $$aDisasters$$xEconomic aspects$$zUnited States. 000717821 7001_ $$aRichardson, Harry W.,$$d1938-$$eeditor. 000717821 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tNational economic impact analysis of terrorist attacks and natural disasters.$$dCheltenham : Edward Elgar, [2014]$$z9781783475858$$w(OCoLC)898227969 000717821 8520_ $$bacq 000717821 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000717821 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1876078$$zOnline Access 000717821 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:717821$$pGLOBAL_SET 000717821 980__ $$aEBOOK 000717821 980__ $$aBIB 000717821 982__ $$aEbook 000717821 983__ $$aOnline
