Political Terrorism

A New Guide to Actors, Authors, Concepts, Data Bases, Theories, and Literature

En savoir plus sur le livre

"At one time a marginal field of study in the social sciences, terrorism is now very much in center stage. Terrorist attacks by the PLO, the Provisional Irish Republican Army, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, the Japanese Red Army, the Unabomber, Aum Shinrikyo, and Timothy McVeigh, the World Trade Center attacks, the assault on a school in Russia, and suicide bombers have all made the term "terrorism" an all-too-common part of our vocabulary." "This edition of Political Terrorism was originally published in the 1980s, well before some of the horrific events noted above. This monumental collection of definitions, conceptual frameworks, paradigmatic formulations, and bibliographic sources has now been reissued in paperback as a resource for the expanding community of researchers on the subject of terrorism. This is a carefully constructed guide to one of the most urgent issues of the world today."--BOOK JACKET.
