The key feature of the text is its concise, scholarly depth, and
accessible format, which enable readers to gain a clear
understanding of the theory that they may use in future research.
Current texts on the market include redundant, lengthy
presentations of theories that fail to distinguish among key
theoretical contributions. Terrorism is an area of urgent global
concern. The number of terrorism and homeland security-focused
academic programs, think tanks, and research centers has
dramatically increased over the past two decades. Many universities
now offer courses on issues related to terrorism at both the
undergraduate and graduate levels within the social science
disciplines as well as interdisciplinary centers. Yet, there is
only one text and a few book chapters on theories of terrorism. The
approach that we will use in the book will make it attractive to
academics, students, and policy makers who seek to develop
theoretically-driven approaches to policy making. Considering the
current number of programs on terrorism and homeland security
within the United States alone, the growing emphasis on terrorism
studies across the world, and the absence of a clear text on
theories of terrorism, the demand should be quite high. This will
be the only text that offers chapter-length descriptions of each
stage of the radicalization process covering pressing issues in the
field of terrorism.
