Title: Countering Terrorism: Can We Meet the Threat of Global Violence?
Description: London Reaktion Books, 2007. 1st ed. Hardback octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), minor edgewear jacket, autograph (written dedication title page). 240 pp. Two international terrorism experts employ their unparalleled insights to probe the catastrophic attacks so indelibly seared into the history of the early 21st century, from 9/11 to the Madrid bombings, to deadly strikes in Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Palestine, and elsewhere. Why has the overall response to terrorism after 9/11 been so abysmal, slow, piecemeal, and far from effective? Why have some countries, despite international criticism, disregarded universally accepted humanitarian norms when prosecuting terrorist suspects? The United States, for example, has squandered an opportunity to combat terrorism with a united and powerful force. Presents clear and concise proposals for future dealings with global terrorism.
