Rethinking Terrorism

Beschreibung

A major new text on terrorism in the contemporary world. Terrorism, Colin Wight argues, is not only a form of political violence but also a form of political communication and can only be understood - and countered effectively - in the context of its relationship to the state.

• A major reassessment of terrorism in the contemporary world and its relationship to the state 
  
• Shows how the historical development of the state is intimately linked to violence but makes a strong argument against the notion of 'state terrorism' 
  
• A bold and original argument from a leading figure in contemporary IR scholarship
