CRMJ 374 - Theories of Terrorism

Institution:

The Citadel

Subject:

Criminal Justice

Description:

Understanding why people commit acts of terrorism is central for counter-terrorism and for understanding crime more broadly. Over the last 15 years, criminology has led the way in examining which personal, social, and psychological factors influence terrorism. These efforts have helped to dispel many mistaken beliefs about terrorism, and have led to more effective counterterrorism policies being developed. This course explores some of these theoretical perspectives, and examines their contributions for understanding terrorism.
