Description
Contemporary terrorism poses a global threat, necessitating a coordinated international response. This book assesses the extent to which states engage in multilateral cooperation to counter terrorist threats. Peter Romaniuk examines the history and current patterns of counter-terrorist collaboration, including institutions such as the United Nations and military, intelligence, and law enforcement agencies. He explores various cooperative activities, from intelligence sharing and military force to criminal law measures and diplomacy. The book argues that while there are notable examples of successful cooperation, the broader trend is marked by a competition for influence over outcomes in counter-terrorism policy.
