This thoroughly revised and updated edition explores the evolution and persistence of terrorism by examining the core motivations—religious, ethnic, and political—driving violent extremist groups and individuals.
Global Terrorism, Fifth Edition, features a variety of comprehensive case studies, and expanded coverage on:
- The intersection between terrorism and insurgency
- Modern terrorism financing networks
- Emerging weapons and tactical innovations, such as the use of drones and online extremism
- Right-Wing Extremism (RWE)
- Updated case studies
- The Hamas–Israel conflict in Gaza
- Counter-terrorism strategies
- How terrorism ends
By placing contemporary events within broader historical and geopolitical contexts, the authors demonstrate that terrorism is not confined to any single region, ideology, or tactical approach. The book’s flexible structure allows instructors and readers to focus on specific aspects most relevant to their interests. It will be an essential text for upperlevel undergraduate courses in political science, international relations, security studies, peace and conflict studies, and history, and an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to understand the complexity of global terrorism and the challenges it presents to the entire world.
