一个人的恐怖分子是另一个人的自由战士吗？恐怖主义是犯罪还是战争？能否有一场 "反恐战争"？
对许多人来说，2001年9月的恐怖袭击改变了世界的面貌，将恐怖主义推到了政治议程的首位，并导致了一系列世界事件，包括伊拉克战争和入侵阿富汗。最近在欧洲多个城市发生的恐怖袭击表明，恐怖主义在今天仍然是一个至关重要的问题。查尔斯-汤申德在理解和解释现代恐怖主义的努力中描绘了一条清晰的道路，他研究了恐怖主义暴力的历史、意识形态和地方根源。
这本新书从恐怖分子为何如此容易引起公众注意的问题出发，分析了恐怖主义作为一种政治策略的出现，并讨论了从法国革命者到伊斯兰圣战者使用这一策略所追求的目标。考虑到采用恐怖主义的团体和个人的类型，汤申德讨论了ISIS的出现和个人自杀行动的激增，并探讨了为他们带来的威胁找到一个相称的回应所涉及的问题，特别是自由民主社会。汤申德分析了在袭击中越来越多地使用刀具和其他带刃武器，以及 "网络恐怖 "的问题，详细介绍了反恐措施的使用，从控制令到无人机袭击，包括比利时和法国对布鲁塞尔、巴黎、尼斯和鲁昂袭击的反应。

Is one person's terrorist another's freedom fighter? Is terrorism crime or war? Can there be a "War on Terror"?
For many, the terrorist attacks of September 2001 changed the face of the world, pushing terrorism to the top of political agendas, and leading to a series of world events including the war in Iraq and the invasion of Afghanistan. The recent terror attacks in various European cities have shown that terrorism remains a crucial issue today. Charting a clear path through the efforts to understand and explain modern terrorism, Charles Townshend examines the historical, ideological, and local roots of terrorist violence.
Starting from the question of why terrorists find it so easy to seize public attention, this new edition analyzes the emergence of terrorism as a political strategy, and discusses the objectives which have been pursued by users of this strategy from French revolutionaries to Islamic jihadists. Considering the kinds of groups and individuals who adopt terrorism, Townshend discusses the emergence of ISIS and the upsurge in individual suicide action, and explores the issues involved in finding a proportionate response to the threat they present, particularly by liberal democratic societies. Analyzing the growing use of knives and other edged weapons in attacks, and the issue of "cyberterror," Townshend details the use of counterterrorist measures, from control orders to drone strikes, including the Belgian and French responses to the Brussels, Paris, Nice, and Rouen attacks.
