Write a review
Contemporary terrorism is a global phenomenon requiring a globalized response. This book aims to assess to what extent states seek multilateral responses to the threats they face from terrorists. It is suitable for students and scholars of international politics, criminology and terrorism studies.
Peter Romaniuk examines the history and current patterns of counter-terrorist co-operation and uncovers under what conditions states cooperate to suppress terrorism as well as how existing international institutions have been affected by the US-led 'global war on terror', launched after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The analysis includes a wide spectrum of institutions from the United Nations and its various bodies to military, intelligence and law enforcement agencies and looks at the full range of counter-terrorist activities from the use of intelligence and military force to criminal law measures, financial controls and diplomacy.
