In the world of terrorism, knowledge is a critical asset. Recent
studies have revealed that, among international terrorists, there
is a global sharing of ideas, tactics, strategies, and lessons
learned. Teaching Terror examines this sharing of information in
the terrorist world, shaping our understanding of, and response to,
the global threat of terrorism. Chapters cover various aspects of
individual and organizational learning, some using a general level
of analysis and others presenting case studies of individual
terrorist groups. These groups teach each other through a variety
of means, including training camps and the Internet. Terrorist
networks are also learning organizations, drawing on situational
awareness, adapting their behavior, and, to give one example,
improving not just their use of improvised explosive devices, but
also rendering technology such as unmanned aerial vehicles and
satellite phones ineffective. This book provides a wealth of
insights on the transfer of knowledge in the world of terrorism,
and offers policy implications for counterterrorism professionals,
scholars, and policymakers.
