Experiencing the war “of” terror
The Critical Terrorism Studies (CTS) community has produced an important volume of work assessing and critiquing epistemological understandings of the War on (of) Terror. Largely missing from this body of work, however, is the experience of those who are directly impacted by the policies of this global phenomenon. By rethinking the War on Terror as an experience of war, I posit a wider understanding, by reassessing its temporal and spatial bounda…
An epistemic break from “expertise”
Professor Marc Sageman’s latest contribution to terrorism “studies” builds on an ever-increasing critique of a field in which “expertise” is something that is largely taken for granted, rather than empirically “known”.

This paper has as its central focus first-hand investigation work carried out in Kenya in the aftermath of the Ethiopian invasion of Somalia at the end of 2006. It seeks to address the way in which the various countries in…

It describes some of the main lessons learned from the past few years of such investigations and reflects on how such lessons might offer insights to academic research in the area
