商品描述

Security is undermined worldwide from political dissident activity and acts of terrorism targeted at innocent victims with no relation to the offenders. This political violence and terrorism plagues all continents and does not originate solely from jihadist groups. With a view towards developing more effective measures of prevention and resolution, Examining Political Violence: Studies of Terrorism, Counterterrorism, and Internal War examines political violence in various national and international settings. A collection of works, some previously published as articles in the journal Police Practice and Research, the book provides both conceptual analysis and case studies, exploring historical and sociopolitical contexts of conflicts in order to help readers better understand these themes.





Divided into three parts, the book begins by defining the concepts of terrorism and radicalization. It discusses countering terrorism through intelligence gathering, examines how a multiagency approach is necessary to be prepared for terrorist acts, and examines different policing models. It discusses the experiences of policing agencies' investigations into terrorist groups, and examines the targeting of police officers by terrorist groups.





Specifying the historical and sociopolitical contexts of conflicts is essential for understanding these themes. Control policies must be grounded in empirical realities, not ideological preferences or aversions. Bringing together theoretical concepts examined through operational and empirical findings, the book is written by academics researching the areas as well as practitioners working in the fields of counterterrorism and political violence. The conclusions drawn from these findings may assist in combating terrorism and political violence around the world.





 

商品描述(中文翻譯)

安全在全球範圍內受到政治異議活動和針對無辜受害者的恐怖主義行為的侵害,這些受害者與犯罪者並無關聯。這種政治暴力和恐怖主義困擾著所有大陸,並不僅僅源於聖戰組織。為了制定更有效的預防和解決措施,《政治暴力的研究:恐怖主義、反恐和內戰的研究》探討了在各種國內和國際背景下的政治暴力。這本書是一系列作品的集合,其中一些曾作為文章發表在期刊《警務實踐與研究》上,提供了概念分析和案例研究,探索衝突的歷史和社會政治背景,以幫助讀者更好地理解這些主題。

本書分為三個部分,首先定義了恐怖主義和激進化的概念。它討論了通過情報收集來反制恐怖主義,檢視了多機構合作在準備應對恐怖行為中的必要性,並探討了不同的警務模式。它還討論了警務機構對恐怖組織調查的經驗,以及恐怖組織對警察的針對行為。

明確衝突的歷史和社會政治背景對於理解這些主題至關重要。控制政策必須建立在經驗現實之上,而非意識形態的偏好或厭惡。本書將通過操作性和經驗性發現來整合理論概念,作者包括研究這些領域的學者以及在反恐和政治暴力領域工作的實務者。從這些發現中得出的結論可能有助於在全球範圍內打擊恐怖主義和政治暴力。
