About the Book

These papers are from a meeting at University College Cork, Ireland, at which terrorism experts from academia and law enforcement presented and dicussed their views on future developments in terrorism. This book brings together papers presented at the meeting and offers a series of challenging, and at times controversial, perspectives on the unfolding nature of terrorism. Themes considered in this book include: the effects of the changing geo-political context on terrorism; strategic and tactical responses to innovations in terrorism and the challenges posed to law enforcement; the changing nature of terrorism; the reality of the threat of use of weapons of mass destruction by terrorist organizations; and single-issue terrorism.
