Making Terrorism History - Thryft

Confronting terrorism with persuasive insight.

Recommendation: Making Terrorism History is a must-read for those who want to understand the root causes of terrorism and practical ways to combat it. The book provides unique insights into the links between trauma and fundamentalism, and the reasons behind peace process failures. Perhaps the book's most distinctive feature is that it presents a range of practical actions that not only governments but also individuals can take to promote peace. If you are looking for persuasive and well-researched analysis that moves beyond the conventional narratives on terrorism, then this book is for you.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Ever since 9/11, it's been clear that we need a new way to deal with terrorism. In this important new book, two experts the root causes of terrorism; the links between trauma and fundamentalism; why people become suicide bombers; why peace processes collapse; whether non-violence is a useful response; and what can be done. Clear, far-reaching, and extremely persuasive, their book shows why political violence is now a major force in our world. At the same time, it offers a range of practical actions that can be taken to combat it, not only by our governments but also on the ground in Iraq, Israel, Palestine, and more widely. In addition, it highlights the many simple but effective steps that we, too, can take within our local communities to make peace—not war—on terror.
