English | ISBN: 3031404424 | 2023 | 251 pages | PDF | 5 MB
The book ambitiously seeks to shape our understanding of terrorism by offering a more systematic interpretation of terrorism-activism through the Stakeholders of Terrorism concept. The author presents an original assessment of terrorism broadly and specifically within the context of the Caribbean through the Stakeholders of Terrorism concept with a view to help the region enhance its counterterrorism policies (nationally & regionally) that recognises the complex inherent duality. In doing so, the author first borrows from and adds to the prevailing literature as it relates to the various explanatory frameworks (psychology, religion, strategy, culture/civilization context, politics and economic dimensions) and the specific stakeholders of terrorism (U.S. mainstream media, ISIS and Individual actors/lone wolf). The Stakeholders of Terrorism concept argues more broadly the existence of an

Throughout their entire lives, everyone is at war with an enemy, the extent of whose strength and influence they perhaps fail to fully comprehend. Those who are constantly in conflict with others, who always believe that violence is the answer, who take pleasure in brutality, murder chaos and anarchy, in short, those who harm the peace and security of the world, have lost the war against this foe, whether they realize it or not, and have fallen under his control . This most dangerous enemy is the Devil, described to us in all aspects of God in the Qur’an.

Free Download Taming Terrorism. It’s Been Done Before By Anna Reid (ed.)
2005 | 122 Pages | ISBN: 0954752759 | PDF | 2 MB
Taming Terrorism: It’s Been Done Before is the second in a series ofPolicy Exchange publications that seek to draw from past experiencein deciding how best to tackle foreign policy challenges today. Thefirst – Regime Change – looked at state-building efforts abroad, frompost-war Germany to contemporary Afghanistan. Taming Terrorismdoes the same with terrorist movements, from the Boxer Rebellionof 1899-1901 to Japan’s Aum ShinriykƵ and Greece’s November 17thin the 1990s. Part of its point is to demonstrate that despite the hypetoday’s struggle is not an unprecedented one, and in fact has muchin common with episodes in the not so distant past. We’ve beatenterrorism before, and we can do it again.As case studies, we picked groups which, like the Islamicradicals, were primarily driven by ideology rather than by concretepolitical demands, and whose aims were so extreme and/oreccentric as to preclude all possibility of rational negotiation.Hence separatists – such as the IRA, ETA and PKK – are excluded, as are single-issue groups such as anti-abortionists and anti-vivsectionists.
