textbook, addressing a number of key issues in
contemporary terrorism studies from both ‘traditional’ and

opposing arguments in one place, the volume will also be important for providing
an overview of the state of the field and its key lines of debate. This textbook will be
essential reading for all students of terrorism and political violence, critical terrorism
studies, critical security studies, security studies and IR in general.
