Critical Terrorism Studies since 11 September 2001
The Social Construction of Organised Political Violence
This article proposes a general analytical framework for how we might better understand intrastate war and related forms of organised political violence. It begins by setting out our understanding of agency and structure, before outlining the key structures and agents central to the social construction of political violence. This is followed by a discussion of some of the common discursive practices frequently observed in the lead-up to the outbr…
Teaching (Something About) Terrorism
This article is an attempt to assess what a stimulating and serious course on terrorism should and should not be. The article is divided into three sections. The first examines the profusion of academic literature on terrorism, particularly with regard to providing students with the tools to separate the wheat from the chaff. At the heart of this section is a call to return to the literature on political violence and collective action in order to…
Terrorism and violence
This article sets out to explore whether the category of 'terrorism' improves or impedes our intellectual understanding of violence. By addressing key concepts at the heart of common definitions of terrorism, the article asks these questions: What does the category of 'terrorism' mean for that violence that is, by definition, left beyond the scope of terrorism studies? What assumptions about violence per se are exposed by definitions of terrorism…
The ‘New War’ on Terror, Cosmopolitanism and the ‘Just War’ Revival
The post-Cold War era has seen the return of the ‘good war’ and a move away from legal pacifism – the control of war through international law – to ‘just war’ theorizing. This article is concerned with the re-legitimization of warfare witnessed within the post-Cold War security paradigm that is being justified via humanitarian claims. It aims to highlight the difficult relationship that has developed since the commencement of the Bush administrat…
New War, Good War and the War on Terror
This contribution is concerned with the manner in which current dominant security narratives intersect with discourses of imperialism and post-imperialism with regard to the post-Cold War dominance of the United States, and more specifically with the way in which such discourses create both moral justification and enabling conditions for Western interventionism. By addressing the relationship between the narrative of the 'new war' and the return …
