This book examines common theoretical conceptualization of terrorism, including all the following dimensions:

  • Macro-criminological theories
  • Psycho-criminological models of aggression
  • Psycho-criminological models of risk and need (RNR)
  • Psychopathology
  • Social psychology, particularly in the areas of intergroup relations, identity, need for closure, and, the quest for significance
  • Ideological and religious passions and extremism
International in scope, each chapter draws on a combination of these frameworks, exemplified in a collection of case series and studies, to help students, practitioners, and researchers better understand these phenomena.
