Explaining Terrorism<br />

Causes, Processes and Consequences<br />

Martha Crenshaw, Stanford University, USA<br />

Series: Cass Series on Political Violence<br />

This volume comprises some of the key essays by<br />

Professor Crenshaw, from 1972 to the present-day, on<br />

the causes, processes and consequences of terrorism.<br />

Since the early 1970s, scholars and practitioners have<br />

tried to explain terrorism and to assess the effectiveness<br />

of government responses to the threat. From its<br />

beginnings in a small handful of a<strong>na</strong>lytical studies, the<br />

research field has expanded to thousands of entries,<br />

with an enormous spike following the 9/11 attacks. The<br />

field of terrorism studies is now impressive in terms of<br />

quantity, scope, and variety. Professor Crenshaw had<br />

studied terrorism since the late 1960s, well before it was<br />

topical, and this selection of her work represents the<br />

development of her thought over time in four areas:<br />

• defining terrorism and identifying its causes<br />

• the different methods used to explain terrorism,<br />

including strategic, organisatio<strong>na</strong>l and psychological<br />

approaches<br />

• how campaigns of terrorism end<br />

• how governments can effectively contribute to<br />

the ending of terrorism.<br />

This collection of essays by one of the pioneering<br />

thinkers in the field of terrorism studies will be essential<br />

reading for all students of political violence and<br />

terrorism, security studies and IR/politics in general.<br />

Selected Contents: Introduction: Definitions, Approaches,<br />

Trajectories, and Responses Part 1: What and Why?<br />

1. The Concept of Terrorism 2. The Causes of Terrorism<br />

3. ’Old’ vs. ’New’ Terrorism Part 2: Explaining Terrorism:<br />

Organizations, Strategies, and Psychology 4. The<br />

Organizatio<strong>na</strong>l Approach 5. Subjective Realities 6. The Logic<br />

of Terrorism 7. Psychological Constraints on Instrumental<br />

Reasoning Part 3: Responding to Terrorism 8. Coercive<br />

Diplomacy 9. Strategies and Grand Strategies<br />

10. Counterterrorism Policy and the Political Process<br />

Part 4: How Terrorism Ends 11. How Terrorism Declines<br />

12. Why Terrorism is Rejected or Renounced<br />
