This classic and now increasingly important book is an exception in the literature on terrorism. Based on complex observations of actual movement participants, Wieviorka's book addresses a broad spectrum of terrorist activity - from Italian left-wing terrorists to Basque nationalist groups to the international terrorism of the Middle East. The result is an incisive analysis of what terrorists believe and what they hope to achieve through their actions. For this new edition, Wieviorka adds new material that remaps the state of terrorism after the events of 2001.
Michel Wieviorka is professor of sociology at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales, Paris.
