Terrorism

Is one person's terrorist another's freedom fighter? Is terrorism crime or war? Can there be a 'war against terrorism'? This book unravels the questions of the problem of terrorism - its causes, methods, effects and limitations - suggesting that it must be understood as a political strategy whose threat can be rationally grasped and answered.
