Since 9/11, the UK's anti-terrorism framework has undergone dramatic changes. Drawing on primary empirical research, this study examines the impact of these on security and citizenship, as perceived by citizens themselves. Engaging with different communities across the UK, it argues that although white individuals are not unconcerned about the effects of anti-terrorism powers, ethnic minority citizens believe that anti-terrorism measures have had a direct and negative impact on various dimensions of their citizenship and security.

This is the first book to present a multidisciplinary approach to cyberterrorism. It traces the threat posed by cyberterrorism today, with chapters discussing possible technological vulnerabilities, potential motivations to engage in cyberterrorism, and the challenges of distinguishing this from other cyber threats. The book also addresses the range of potential responses to this threat by exploring policy and legislative frameworks as well as a diversity of techniques for deterring or countering terrorism in cyber environments. The case studies throughout the book are global in scope and include the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. With contributions from distinguished experts with backgrounds including international relations, law, engineering, computer science, public policy and politics, Cyberterrorism: Understanding, Assessment and Response offers a cutting edge analysis of contemporary debate on, and issues surrounding, cyberterrorism. This global scope and diversity of perspectives ensure it is of great interest to academics, students, practitioners, policymakers and other stakeholders with an interest in cyber security.

This book investigates the intersection of terrorism, digital technologies and cyberspace. Currently, the evolving academic field of cyber-terrorism is largely dominated by single perspective, technological, political, or sociological, texts. In contrast, this book utilises a multi-disciplinary framework to provide a broader introduction to debates and developments that have largely been conducted in isolation to date. Drawing together key academics from a range of disciplinary fields, including Computer Science, Engineering, Social Psychology, International Relations, Law and Politics, the volume focuses on three broad themes : 1) how - and why - do terrorists engage with the Internet, digital technologies and cyberspace ?; 2) what threat do these various activities pose, and to whom ?; 3) how might these activities be prevented, deterred or responded to ? Exploring these themes, the book engages with a range of contemporary case studies and different forms of terrorism : from lone-actor terrorists, protest activities associated with 'hacktivist' groups and state-based terrorism. Through the book's engagement with questions of law, politics, technology and beyond, the volume offers a holistic approach which provides both a unique and valuable contribution to this subject matter.

"Terrorist use of the Internet has become a focus of media, policy, and scholarly attention in recent years. Terrorists use the Internet in a variety of ways, the most important being for propaganda purposes and operations-related content, but it is also potentially a means or target of attack. This book presents revised versions of a selection of papers delivered at the NATO Advanced Research Workshop (ARW) on "Terrorists' Use of the Internet" held in Dublin, Ireland in June 2016. One aim of the workshop was to nurture dialogue between members of the academic, policy and practitioner communities, so the 60 delegates from 13 countries who attended the workshop included representatives from each of these. The participants encompassed a wide range of expertise (including engineering, computer science, law, criminology, political science, international relations, history, and linguistics) and the chapters contained herein reflect these diverse professional and disciplinary backgrounds. The workshop also aimed to address the convergence of threats. Following an introduction which provides an overview of the various ways in which terrorists use the Internet, the book's remaining 25 chapters are grouped into 5 sections on cyber terrorism and critical infrastructure protection; cyber-enabled terrorist financing; jihadi online propaganda; online counterterrorism; and innovative approaches and responses."--

This book offers a wide-ranging and critical examination of recent counter-radicalisation policies, using case studies from several countries.Counter-radicalisation policies, such as the UK Prevent strategy, have been highly controversial and increasingly criticised since their introduction. In this edited volume, voices from disciplines including sociology, political science, criminology and International Relations are brought together to address issues across the global roll-out of counter-radicalisation agendas. In so doing, the book critically interrogates: (i) the connections between counter-radicalisation and other governmental programmes and priorities relating to integration and community cohesion; (ii) the questionable dependence of counter-radicalisation initiatives on discourses and assumptions about race, risk and vulnerability to extremism; and, (iii) the limitations of existing counter-radicalisation machineries for addressing relatively new types of extremism including amongst right-wing activists.Through examining these questions, the book draws on a range of contemporary case studies spanning from counter-radicalisation in the UK, Germany and Denmark, through to detailed analyses of specific preventative initiatives in Australia and the United States. Conceptually, the chapters engage with a range of critical approaches, including discourse theory, autoethnography and governmentality.This book will be of much interest to students of radicalisation, critical terrorism studies, counter-terrorism, sociology, security studies and IR in general.
