Terrorism poses an undeniable threat to societies throughout the
world today. Martyr terrorism, the fastest growing form of
terrorist activity, and arguably the most effective, has become a
regular occurrence. But how has terrorist activity evolved in the
last 100 years, and what are the ethical costs of terrorism? In
this informative book, three philosophers, all experts on the
ethics of conflict, examine the various definitions of terrorism
and the nature of martyr terrorism. Through accounts of terrorist
campaigns, from 19th century Russian terrorism, to the 20th century
campaigns in Ireland , Israel and Greece , and contemporary
campaigns in Chechnya , Afghanistan and Iraq , this fascinating
book explores the ethical implications of terrorism from a
philosophical perspective. Setting out the social, psychological
and political causes of terrorism, the book interrogates the cases
for and against terrorist activity in terms of just war theory.
Articulate, provocative and stimulating, this timely book is an
ideal introduction to an important contemporary social issue.
