520 _aThis article describes phases in which organized criminal activity far exceeds any terrorist activities before returning to a more predominant focus on terrorism. This study explores reasons for these temporal fluctuations in criminal versus terrorist activity from 1991 through August 2011, identifying four categories of explanatory factors: leadership, structure, membership and grievances and linkages to other actors. The study concludes by highlighting some implications for policy, research and the future of Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG).
