Description
Lone Wolf Terrorism: Understanding the Growing Threat The threat posed by lone wolf terrorists has become increasingly evident in recent years. Attacks carried out by individuals acting alone have shown that they can be just as deadly as those carried out by organized groups. This comprehensive treatment of the issue, written by an internationally renowned terrorism expert, delves into the diversity of motivations and backgrounds of lone wolf terrorists. The author identifies key characteristics of this growing threat, including the creative and dangerous nature of lone wolves, their ability to operate across a range of ideologies, and the role of the internet in both enabling and potentially undermining their activities. The book also explores innovative strategies and policies that can be developed to prevent and respond to lone wolf terrorism. With over 25 years of experience studying terrorism, this insightful book provides essential reading for anyone concerned about the potential terrorist threats from violence-prone individuals. A new preface by the author adds a timely perspective on recent developments in the field.
