See moreThe first comprehensive handbook on the economic analysis of terrorism. A fundamental reference for understanding terrorism in academia, government, and law enforcement. It combines chapters on general themes such as the economic approach to studying terrorism with focused chapters on key issues such as counterterrorism and terror organizations.
The book incorporates what is known in the field and the fundamental theoretical framework for current and future research.
Since the turn of the century, few issues have shaped political debate and policy-making more than terrorism. As a result, there has been a huge increase in the amount of academic research devoted to investigating the causes and consequences of terrorism. The Cambridge Handbook on the Economics of Terrorism is the first to present a state-of-the art survey of the economics of terrorism.
It adopts a rational-choice perspective according to which terrorists are viewed as rational economic actors and presents a framework for analysing the causes and consequences of terrorism. It explores the causes and consequences of terrorism and shines a light on practical counterterrorism policies and their trade-offs.
With contributions from many leading figures in this fast-growing and important field, this book offers an accessible yet comprehensive collection of the economic analysis of terror.
