Since the early 1970s  scholars and practitioners have tried to explain terrorism and to assess the effectiveness of government responses to the threat. From its beginnings in a small handful of analytical studies  the research field has expanded to thousands of entries  with an enormous spike following the 9\/11 attacks. The field of terrorism studies is now impressive in terms of quantity  scope  and variety. Professor Crenshaw had studied terrorism since the late 1960s  well before it was topical  and this selection of her work represents the development of her thought over time in four areas:  defining terrorism and identifying its causes  the different methods used to explain terrorism  including strategic  organisational and psychological approaches  how campaigns of terrorism end  how governments can effectively contribute to the ending of terrorism.  This collection of essays by one of the pioneering thinkers in the field of terrorism studies will be essential reading for all students of political violence and terrorism  security studies and IR\/politics in general.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45646983200821,"sku":"ByrdShop_0415780519","price":28.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780415780513.jpg?v=1781684484","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/explaining-terrorism-cass-series-on-political-violence-9780415780513","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
