Abstract

Zwei Staaten, ein Problem. Nirgendwo in Europa verübten linksextreme Terroristen während der 1970er Jahre so viele blutige Attentate wie in Italien und in der Bundesrepublik. Südlich der Alpen verschärften neofaschistische Anschläge die Lage noch. Die beiden jungen Demokratien sahen sich gezwungen, auf diese militante Herausforderung zu reagieren. Die Interaktion von Terrorismus, Staat und Gesellschaft prägte ein Jahrzehnt, das in doppelter Hinsicht als "bleiern" empfunden wurde: wegen der drückenden Atmosphäre unter dem Primat der Inneren Sicherheit und wegen der Wiederkehr bewaffneter Gewalt in der politischen Auseinandersetzung. Wie wurde diese Krise bewältigt? Nahmen dabei der demokratische Staat und die liberale Gesellschaft Schaden? Ein vergleichender Blick auf beide Länder verspricht neue Antworten.

Abstract

Terrorism and crime are two areas of knowledge that have traditionally been looked at independently. In this timely and original text, two of the leading authors in the field provide a clear and thorough look at terrorism from a criminological perspective. Integrating the latest research, the book explores the motives of criminals and terrorists, the causes of crime and terrorism and the impact of the law and the legal system. Central to this exploration, the authors examine the nexus between criminal and terrorist organizations, and the commonalities and differences between them and what this means for public policy and safety and security within states. Cross-cultural and international in perspective, this is a fresh and original text that will appeal to undergraduates, academics, and researchers in criminology, politics, international relations, sociology, communication and cultural studies--Product description.

Abstract

"Since the early 1960's, few countries have endured more acts of terrorism against civilian targets than Cuba. The US has often been involved in these attacks. This book gives a voice to the victims. Keith Bolender reveals the enormous impact that terrorism has had on Cuba's civilian population. Over 1,000 documented incidents have resulted in more than 3,000 deaths and 2,000 injuries. Bolender includes first-person interviews with surviving victims, and relatives and friends of those killed. The book is a unique resource for anyone interested in Cuba's troubled relationship with the US."--Page [4] of cover.

Abstract

Terrorism is imprinted on Western society's consciousness. Nearly every week a terrorist attack occurs in the world. The academic world, in attempting to understand terrorism, has often been limited to descriptive work rather than analysis, and has produced surprisingly few mainstream collections on the subject. Coping with Terrorism offers a collection of essays that ask: who are terrorists, what are their goals, who supports them, and how can we combat their tactics? The essays are scholarly, rather than journalistic or ideological, in their approach. As such, they scrutinize a much-discussed and prevalent subject and bring it into the mainstream for international relations.
