About this book

Looking back at the "War on Terror" and its policies, actions, and the violence that followed, this book analyzes the resulting changes in international power structures and the relationship between citizens and their representatives. It defines our shortcomings in opposing this type of violence by demonstrating how the notion of legitimate violence has been broadened.

The impact of the "War on Terror" on the public view of Liberalism is explored, as well as its effects on the role of state authorities in our lives. Thus, this book names the lessons we ought to learn from the　actions taken against terrorist organizations.

Accessibly written, thorough discussion on the challenges of contemporary terrorism

Insightful reflections about the impacts of 20 years of the war against terrorism

Will set the tone for future studies on contemporary terrorism
