This book examines the evolving threat of terrorism and draws on
the latest research to assess future trends. The author assumes
that terrorism will remain a potent threat to the international
system throughout the twenty-first century, primarily because of
the convergence of two negative trends: the availability of
Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Weapons (CBRN) -
also known as Weapons of Mass Destruction - and the proliferation
of terrorist organizations seeking to achieve mass casualties. Even
without the CBRN element, however, Smith maintains that terrorism
will remain an ongoing threat. The book also explores specific
aspects of contemporary terrorism, including political, social,
economic, religious, and ideological factors, globalization as a
stimulation to contemporary terrorism, the role of organized crime
in terrorist movements, and more. Written with students in college
and professional programs in mind, the book includes case studies
interspersed throughout the chapters that provide clarifying
examples.
