This book considers not the beginning or origins of terrorism but
how groups that use terrorism end. Terrorism as a tactic is
unlikely to disappear, however virtually all the groups that
employed terrorist violence during the 1960s and 1970s have passed
from the scene in one way or another. Likewise most of the
individuals who embarked on 'careers' in terrorism over these same
years now engage in other pursuits. The author argues that al-Qaeda
and the various violent Islamist groups it has inspired are, like
their predecessors, bound to bring their operations to an end.
Rather than discussing the defection or de-radicalization of
individuals the book aims to analyze how terrorist groups are
defeated, or defeat themselves. It examines the historical record,
drawing on a large collection of empirical data to analyze in
detail the various ends of these violent organizations. This book
provides a unique empirically informed perspective on the end of
terrorism that is a valuable addition to the currently available
literature and will be of interest to scholars of terrorism,
security studies and international politics.
