"his book presents nine up-to-date chapters on key aspects of terrorist groups by leading contributors in the study of terrorism. The chapters focus on the study of terrorist groups, their interface with targeted governments as well as ways to counter politically motivated terrorist attacks. To augment the efficacy of counterterrorism, governments must understand how terrorist groups form, recruit members, gain support, and choose targets. Additionally, governments must be aware of interactions within and among terrorist groups to allow governments to hone the practice of counterterrorism. This book addresses many of these topics. In particular, the volume casts light on group formation during 1860-1969 and 1970-2016, respectively. From different vantages, terrorist recruitment and group support are investigated. Other topics include the role of terrorist groups' ideologies and goals, determinants of home-base attacks, groups' response to government countermeasures, intergroup interactions as well as conflicts. On Terrorist Groups will be of interest to students and researchers of Terrorism, Political Violence, Security and Intelligence, Conflict Studies, and Political Science in general. This book was originally published as a special issue of Defence and Peace Economics.

Et vous, que faisiez-vous ce jour-là ? En France, il est 14h46 (8h 46m 25s heure locale), lorsque le Boeing 767 du vol 11 d'American Airlines percute la tour Nord du World Trade Center, ouvrant une gigantesque brèche et tuant sur le coup près de 300 personnes. Le premier attentat du 11 septembre 2001 venait de se produire, trois autres allaient suivre, plongeant la planète dans un état de sidération extrême. Dans une enquête au souffle haletant, Mitchell Zuckoff a reconstitué minutieusement cette journée dramatique. Vingt ans après, il fait entendre la voix des disparus, témoins et sauveteurs dans un livre bouleversant. Hommes et femmes ordinaires, ils sont devenus ces héros d'un jour qui puisèrent en eux une force irréductible dont ils n'avaient pas idée. De ce drame, qui fit basculer le monde dans le XXIe siècle, il reste désormais ces récits magnifiques qui forcent l'admiration et sont autant d'éloges de la vie plus forte que la mort.

This report analyzes terrorist groups' use of advanced information and communication technologies in efforts to plan, coordinate, and command their operations. It is one component of a larger study that examines terrorists' use of technology, a critical arena in the war against terrorism. The goal of the investigation reported here is to identify which network technologies might be used to support the activities that terrorists must perform to conduct successful operations, understand terrorists' decisions about when and under what conditions particular technologies will be used and determine the implications of these insights for efforts to combat terrorism. The information presented in this report should be of interest to homeland security policymakers because it can be used to guide research, development, testing, and evaluation of techniques for collecting counterterrorist intelligence and developing measures to combat terrorism. The results of this analysis may also help inform technology and regulatory policy regarding the development, use, and management of systems that terrorists could use.
