Introduction

Analyse the causes and impacts of terrorism and political violence, exploring various theoretical frameworks and case studies.

Terrorism and political violence are persistent challenges in the contemporary international environment.

This taster course, curated by the faculty at the Handa Centre for the Study of Terrorism and Political Violence, offers a concise introduction to political violence. We focus on the language used to describe and analyse this phenomenon, as well as the causes and effectiveness of terrorism.

Throughout the course, we’ll examine a range of perspectives and engage with case studies that uncover the complex and varied manifestations of political violence. This taster course is the perfect starting point for gaining a foundational understanding of these critical topics.
