Terrorism and Us Policy: Problems in Definition and Response
Angebote / Angebote:
My goal was to study current definitions of terrorism and US counterterrorism policy, identify possible shortcomings, and propose solutions. I discovered basic problems, not only with adequately defining terrorism, but with US government response to one particular form of terrorism--state-sponsored international terrorism. These problems stem from lack of a coordinated, clear definition of state-sponsored international terrorism between US agencies, and failure to attack the appropriate center of gravity of state-sponsored terrorist organizations. I propose a new definition of state-sponsored international terrorism which is more specific and lends itself to clearer policy development, furthermore, our counterterrorism policy should place more emphasis on targeting the sponsoring state, rather than peripheral elements of state-sponsored terrorist groups.
