Material type: TextPublication details: 2020Subject(s): Online resources: In: Studies in Conflict & Terrorism Vol.43, No 1,2,3, January, February, March 2020, pp. 145-160 (114)Summary: This article is interested in answering the following questions: What does the cost-benefit decision look like on a single operation? What does the planning process look like? How do terrorists choose between discrete targets? What emotions are felt during the planning and operational phases? What environmental cues are utilized in the decision-making process? Fortunately, much insight is available from the wider criminological literature where studies often provide offender-oriented accounts of the crime commission process. We hypothesize similar factors take place in terrorist decision making and search for evidence within a body of terrorist autobiographies.Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Date due | Barcode | |
