Handbook of Terrorism Research

Terrorism is first and foremost viewed as a matter of security policy; however, its emergence, perception, effects, prevention and mitigation actually involve a multitude of societal sectors as well as academic fields. This also means that numerous academics practitioners and decision-makers are in a position to contribute to analysing and countering terrorism. This handbook serves as the first reference work on terrorism studies, particularly in Europe, capturing the complexity of this subject in its entirety. By using theories and perspectives from various academic disciplines, the handbook encourages scholars and students to apply their expertise to the field of terrorism studies and to emphasise interdisciplinary work.
