Encyclopedia of Terrorism, Third Edition (Ls Edition)

by Cindy Combs and Martin Slann

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
