* Provides both a basic introduction to terrorism and a more
sophisticated analysis of its effects past, present, and looking
ahead, giving students at all levels and from a variety of
disciplines a way into the subject. * Uses right-wing domestic
terrorism as a theme for the 9th edition to compare and contrast
with ISIS, offering a lens through which to examine terror threats
historically as well as contemporaneously. * Explores terrorism in
a truly global context-not overemphasizing Middle East terrorism as
other texts do. * Integrates lucid summaries of key social science
concepts with insightful case studies, discussion questions, and
analysis challenges, thus combining theory and practice in every
chapter. New to the Ninth Edition: Uses a key contemporary
challenge of terrorism-the emerging radicalization via social media
platforms-as a thread to link its chapters, especially in terms of
domestic terror threats and the rise of the far right in the US and
abroad. Discusses the evolving "fifth wave" of modern terrorism,
linking and radicalizing groups and individuals in all parts of the
globe, recruiting individuals for terrorist acts in their own
states and drawing them into international confrontations. Compares
the profile of domestic extremists over time up to the Capitol
rioters of January 2021. Includes new and updated case studies on a
wide variety of terror phenomena including the Covid-19 pandemic,
Q'Anon, the Boogaloo Movement, the Proud Boys, and the War on
Terror in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria, among several others.
