Bruce Hoffman's Inside Terrorism has remained the seminal work for
understanding the historical evolution of terrorism and the
terrorist mind-set. In this revised third edition of his classic
text, Hoffman analyzes the latest developments in global terrorism,
offering insight into new adversaries, motivations, strategies, and
tactics. He focuses on the rise of ISIS and the resilience of
al-Qaeda; terrorist exploitation of the Internet and embrace of
social media; radicalization of foreign fighters; and potential
future trends, including the repercussions of a post-caliphate
ISIS. Hoffman examines the demographics of contemporary terrorist
leaders and recruits; the continued use of suicide bombers; and the
likelihood of a chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear
terrorist strike. He also considers the resurgence of violent
antigovernment militants, including white supremacists and
opponents of abortion. He argues that the war on terrorism did not
end with Osama bin Laden's death and that ongoing instability and
strife in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Yemen, among other
places, will both sustain terrorist movements and have broad
implications for domestic and international security around the
globe.
