Topic Reading-Vol.287-1/23/2013

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Austrians vote to keep compulsory military service.
Numbers of European countries have compulsory military service system, conscription, or the draft, which mandates military service for a period time when men reach a certain age, like Denmark, Greece, Norway, Turkey, Russia, Switzerland, Korea and China. Austria and its neighboring Switzerland are both observe neutrality and citizens and politicians of those countries have been in a long dispute as to how effective the system is to encounter modern terrorism or cyber attacks and whether they should abandon or maintain the compulsory system.
Enjoy reading the article and seeing the photo, and think about the conscription system in the modern world.
