  • "Dans une perspective historique, ce livre analyse le terrorisme ethno-nationaliste ou séparatiste de l'époque des décolonisations, son internationalisation avec l'OLP, sa mondialisation sous forme religieuse à partir de la révolution iranienne, sa mutation en terrorisme mercenaire sponsorisé par des Etats et envisage son évolution probable dans les années à venir."

  • "Neben W. Laqueurs jüngst aktualisiertem Standardwerk (BA 1/99) kann diese konzise und sorgfältige Studie des Terrorismusexperten der amerikanischen RAND-Corporation beanspruchen, die gegebene Materialfülle verdichtet zu haben, um den Blick auf wenige Erscheinungen und Tendenzen zu lenken. Es sind dies ein religiös motivierter Terrorismus - das Bombenattentat von Oklahoma 1995 hat die US-amerikanische Aufmerksamkeit gegenüber den eigenen, von weißem Suprematiedenken und christlichem Fanatismus durchdrungenen Milizen auf unglückselige Weise stimuliert - und vor allem der staatlich unterstützte Terrorismus in den internationalen Beziehungen. Wie P. Waldmann (BA 1/99) widmet Hoffman sich dem Verhältnis von Terrorismus und Medien. Terroristische Aktivitäten sollen für die ausübende Gruppe Aufmerksamkeit, Bestätigung und Anerkennung erzeugen - die Massenmedien werden zum öffentlichen Spiegel und Kolporteur der Anliegen."
  • "In this revised edition, the author analyzes the new adversaries, motivations, and tactics of global terrorism that have emerged in recent years, focusing specifically on how Al Qaeda has changed since 9/11; the reasons behind its resiliency, resonance, and longevity; and its successful use of the Internet and videotapes to build public support and gain new recruits. He broadens the discussion by evaluating the potential repercussions of the Iraqi insurgency, the use of suicide bombers, terrorist exploitation of new communications media, and the likelihood of a chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear terrorist strike. Looking at the U.S., he reconsiders the Timothy McVeigh case and the threats posed by American Christian white supremacists and abortion opponents as well as those posed by militant environmentalists and animal rights activists. He argues that the attacks on the World Trade Center fundamentally transformed the West's view of the terrorist threat."@en
