In recent years, senior policy officials have highlighted increased
signs of convergence between terrorism and unconventional (CBRN)
weapons. Terrorism now involves technologies available to anyone,
anywhere, anytime, deployed through innovative solutions. This
indicates a new and more complex global security environment with
increasing risks of terrorists trying to acquire and deploy a CBRN
(Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear) attack. This book
addresses the critical importance of understanding innovation and
decision-making between terrorist groups and unconventional
weapons, and the difficulty in pinpointing what factors may drive
violence escalation. It also underscores the necessity to
understand the complex interaction between terrorist group dynamics
and decision-making behaviour in relation to old and new
technologies. Unconventional Weapons and International Terrorism
seeks to identify a set of early warnings and critical indicators
for possible future terrorist efforts to acquire and utilize
unconventional CBRN weapons as a means to pursue their goals. It
also discusses the challenge for intelligence analysis in handling
threat convergence in the context of globalisation. The book will
be of great interest to students of terrorism studies,
counter-terrorism, nuclear proliferation, security studies and IR
in general.
