This book examines the question of when terrorism works.
Determining if political violence is effective and, if at all
possible, when it is effective, is vital for both intellectual and
practical reasons. The volume contains chapters from scholars who
have been at the forefront of the efficaciousness debate and argues
that terrorism can be effective in delivering tactical returns but
is largely ineffective in realizing strategic goals. The book
considers the pros and cons of choosing coercive intimidation to
serve political ends from both a theoretical perspective and case
study approach. It also outlines some of the methodological
problems inherent in the academic debate that has taken place thus
far on the subject, and suggests ways forward for making future
scholarship in this area more inclusive, systematic and
dialogically fruitful than it has been to date.
