Description
The ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and the bombings overseas have shown that--despite the "War on Terror"--terrorism is still very much a part of daily life for many individuals. Encyclopedia of Terrorism, Third Edition provides students, researchers, journalists, and policymakers with a complete survey of what seems to be an intractable problem. More than 330 entries organized in an easily accessible, A-to-Z format offer comprehensive treatments of the events, people, organizations, and places that have played a major role in international terrorism. Each entry is placed within its appropriate historical context to help readers understand the wide-ranging motivations behind terrorist actions.
New and updated entries include:
- Islamic State
- mass shootings
- narco-terrorism
- Paris attacks
- Pulse nightclub terrorist attack
- right-wing terrorism
- San Bernardino attacks
- school site analysis
- siege of the U.S. Capitol
- Special Projects Team-Special Air Service (SAS)
- state-sponsored terrorism
- white supremacist groups
