CRJU 3000 - Global Terrorism

Institution:

Albany State University

Subject:

Criminal Justice

Description:

This course will focus on worldwide terrorism as an evolving phenomenon, from both historical and contemporary viewpoints. Students will derive their own definitions of what constitutes "terrorism" and "terrorists" from a wide-ranging study of the groups and individuals associated with politicized action by force and violence. In doing so, the class will attempt to arrive at a consensus regarding the effects of terrorism and the responces to it, both by governments and by citizens at large. Terrorist methods, weapons, and tactics will be examined in detail. Finally, each student will be assigned a region of the globe for particular study and will prepare a Term Paper in which past and current terror events will be reviewed and analyzed, and a forecast will be prepared (and defended) of what my be expected in the future.
