- When do individuals radicalise? - Can terrorism be rational? -
How can we define terrorism? - What is the role of women in
terrorism? - Can states be terrorist? World leading experts answer
these questions in Contemporary Terrorism Studies, the first
textbook to provide a multi-disciplinary, methodologically plural,
and richly diverse introduction to terrorism studies. Contemporary
Terrorism Studies covers the main approaches in terrorism studies,
and is structured into three comprehensive sections. The first on
'The State of Terrorism Studies' maps the development and
historical context of the discipline, and looks to the future of
terrorism studies. Part two on 'Issues and Debates in Terrorism
Studies' examines key contentious questions and debates such as the
role of women, technology, and the media in terrorism. The final
part, part three on 'Countering Terrorism' focuses specifically on
counterterrorism: it's instruments, foreign policy, legal
frameworks, and organisations. Overall, text will engage students,
and establish a confident understanding of the subject. The
textbook has been developed with pedagogical features to help
enhance student learning. Each chapter contains case studies to
highlight real world examples of political violence, questions for
reflection to encourage critical thinking, and suggestions for
further reading which provide useful sources for further reading,
essays, and exam preparation. Furthermore, a consistent, accessible
tone, and jargon-free writing style makes Contemporary Terrorism
Studies the clearest guide to understanding terrorism. Digital
