Countering Terrorism: Psychosocial Strategies: summary, description and annotation
We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Countering Terrorism: Psychosocial Strategies" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
The volume contains 18 chapters by expert authors with diverse cultural backgrounds and provides a wide ranging canvas for multifaceted understanding of the terror phenomenon. The opening section, Understanding Terrorism: Psychosocial Issues, places emphasis on developing a well-heeled construct with strong theoretical foundations and empirical understanding of the psycho-socio-cultural dynamics involved in perpetration of terror acts. The second section, Countering Terrorism: Psychosocial Avenues, flows from the understanding thus attained and expounds counter-terror strategies and preventive measures that go beyond the obvious short-term goals and envisage the creation of a peaceful world.
