THE POLITICAL ECONOMY OF TERRORISM, SECOND EDITION
The Political Economy of Terrorism, Second Edition, presents a widely accessi ble political economy approach to the study of terrorism. It applies economic methodology - theoretical and empirical - combined with political analysis and realities to the study of domestic and transnational terrorism. In so doing, the book provides both a qualitative and quantitative investigation of terrorism in a balanced, up-to-date presentation that informs students, policymakers, research ers, and the general reader of the current state of knowledge. Included are histor ical aspects, a discussion of watershed events, the rise of modern-day terrorism, examination of current trends, the dilemma of liberal democracies, evaluation of counterterrorism, analysis of hostage incidents, and much more. The new edition expands the coverage of each chapter, adds a new chapter on terrorist network structures and organization, accounts for changes in the Department of Homeland Security and the USA PATRIOT Act, and discusses insurance against terrorism. Rational-actor models of terrorist and government behavior and game
theoretic analysis are presented for readers with no prior theoretical train ing. Where relevant, the authors display graphs using data from International Terrorism: Attributes of Terrorist Events (ITERATE), the Global Terrorism Database (GTD), and other public-access data sets.
