Victims and Perpetrators of Terrorism: Exploring Identities, Roles and Narratives: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Victims and Perpetrators of Terrorism: Exploring Identities, Roles and Narratives" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This volume examines how both victims and perpetrators of terrorism are relevant to our understanding of political violence.While the perpetrators of political violence have been the subject of significant academic research, victims of terrorism and political violence have rarely featured in this landscape. In an effort to capture the vast complexity of terrorism, and to widen the scope of the agenda that informs terrorism research, this book presents a series of analyses that examines the role of the perpetrators, the experience of the victims, the public and media perceptions of both, and given the inherent intricacy of the phenomenon, how we might think about engaging with perpetrators in an effort to prevent further violence. By considering the role of the many actors who are central to our understanding and framing of terrorism and political violence, this book highlights the need to focus on how the interactivity of individuals and contexts have implications for the emergence, maintenance and termination of campaigns of political violence. The volume aims to understand not only how former perpetrators and victims can work in preventing violence in a number of contexts but, more broadly, the narratives that support and oppose violence, the construction of victimisation, the politicisation of victimhood, the justifications for violence and the potential for preventing and encouraging desistance from violence.This book will be of much interest to students of terrorism and political violence, victimology, criminology, security studies and IR in general.

Genesis, and not aftermath, has tended to dominate the study of terrorism. Scholars, in other words, have long been far more preoccupied with Why Men Rebel (to borrow the strikingly gendered title of a classic 1970 study); and not with how both whole societies, and their individual members, cope afterwards. We know relatively little about the long-term social resonance of the terroristic violence that so preoccupies our governments, our media and, indeed, ourselves.
Easy stereotypes thus continue to thrive in an analytical vacuum about how victims should react to their experiences of political violence. At one end of the spectrum lies the automatic assumption that violence brutalises automatically: a view given perhaps its most forceful expression by W.H. Auden: I and all the public know/What all schoolchildren learn/Those to whom evil is done/Do Evil in return. How can we begin to reconcile such utterly centrifugal popular understandings?
To their enormous credit, the essays in Victims and Perpetrators of Terrorism suggest many profitable ways to advance understanding here. As the title indicates, the editorial decision to consider phenomena of victimhood and radicalisation between the covers of the same volume is a bold one; or as Orla Lynch and Javier Argomaniz put it with commendable academic delicacy in their introductory discussion, the claim to victimhood is often closely managed in the case of terrorism. But in the end the analytical dividends speak for themselves. We learn much comparatively about the conditions under which violence does, or does not, breed further violence. Above all, such a rich collection of case studies bears stark witness to the crucial mediating roles of context and culture in explaining social impacts and consequences of terrorism at local levels: a recurrent strength here is the space allowed for eloquent local voices (you only become victims when you are forgotten). Acts of terrorism, these essays and witnesses remind us uncomfortably, always happen somewhere
