The Oxford Handbook of Terrorism systematically integrates the
substantial body of scholarship on terrorism and counterterrorism
before and after 9/11. In doing so, it introduces scholars and
practitioners to state of the art approaches, methods, and issues
in studying and teaching these vital phenomena. This Handbook goes
further than most existing collections by giving structure and
direction to the fast-growing but somewhat disjointed field of
terrorism studies. The volume locates terrorism within the wider
spectrum of political violence instead of engaging in the
widespread tendency towards treating terrorism as an exceptional
act. Moreover, the volume makes a case for studying terrorism
within its socio-historical context. Finally, the volume addresses
the critique that the study of terrorism suffers from lack of
theory by reviewing and extending the theoretical insights
contributed by several fields - including political science,
political economy, history, sociology, anthropology, criminology,
law, geography, and psychology. In doing so, the volume showcases
the analytical advancements and reflects on the challenges that
remain since the emergence of the field in the early 1970s.
