Text of Note
"Is terrorism crime or war? Can there be a 'war against terrorism?' In this fully updated edition, Charles Townshend unravels the questions at the heart of the problem of terrorism (its causes, methods, effects, and limitations) suggesting that it must be understood as a political strategy whose threat can be rationally grasped and answered."--Publisher information.
