Summary, etc. | The Munich Olympics, 1972 the Birmingham pub bombings, 1974.... the Iranian Embassy Siege, 1980.... the US Marine HQ in Beirut, 1983.... the Achille Lauro, 1985....<br/><br/>Throughout the world, kidnappings, bomb attacks and assassinations are violent features of protest; their tragic repercussions for innocent victims elicit emotional responses among the gener public, and raise issues about the motivation and mentality of the terrorist.<br/><br/>This pioneering investigation of the individual psychology of the terrorist examines all forms of terrorist outrage, from political suicides to hijackings, and comments on the activities of organisations as diverse as the IRA, the PLO, the Ku Klux Klan and the Baader Meinhof Group.<br/><br/>A practical psychological and behavioural perspective produces new and often controversial conclusions. The simple identification of the terrorist as a fanatic or a psychopath is questioned; the policing of the UK Miners' Strike in 1984 is examined in the terms of 'State Terrorism'.<br/><br/>It is naive to expect easy solutions but Maxwell Taylor's study contributes to a deeper understanding of the terrorist mind. |
