This book examines the evolution of counter-terrorism (CT) policies
in liberal democracies since 2001, with a specific focus on the
case of Belgium. What is counter-terrorism (CT)? While the answer
to this question may seem self-evident, it has become quite
complicated to define the contours of a field that has expanded
dramatically in the two decades since the 9/11 attacks. The
development of "softer" policies, dealing with the prevention of
radicalisation, has blurred the limits of CT. Through the use of
public policy theory and an in-depth case study on Belgium, the
book identifies the key factors influencing CT policy-making, both
domestically and internationally, and offers an explanation for the
development of a more comprehensive CT agenda across Europe. It
provides an innovative theoretical approach and is also based on
extensive interviews with key counter-terrorism officials and
analysis of key policy documents. The book concludes by identifying
some key drivers of change and offers an embryonic theory of CT
policy-making. The book will be of much interest to students and
practitioners of counter-terrorism, radicalisation, European
politics and security studies.
