Summary: National perspectives on counter-terrorism are proving increasingly inadequate in confronting the growing magnitude and complexity of the threat of terrorism. The mobility and lethality of terrorist groups has enormously augmented and there has been an exponential increase in the support systems and contacts among terrorist groups, transcending all conventional political boundaries. The cross-border movement of populations compounds this problem even further, as does the use of narcotics to underwrite the costs of terrorism. Each of the papers in the present volume is founded on the premise that the magnitude and diversity of lethal and often intractable terrorist conflicts today demand a multi-dimensional and international operational response, in the absence of which most national policy prescriptions are bound to be infructuous.

National perspectives on counter-terrorism are proving increasingly inadequate in confronting the growing magnitude and complexity of the threat of terrorism. The mobility and lethality of terrorist groups has enormously augmented and there has been an exponential increase in the support systems and contacts among terrorist groups, transcending all conventional political boundaries. The cross-border movement of populations compounds this problem even further, as does the use of narcotics to underwrite the costs of terrorism.

Each of the papers in the present volume is founded on the premise that the magnitude and diversity of lethal and often intractable terrorist conflicts today demand a multi-dimensional and international operational response, in the absence of which most national policy prescriptions are bound to be infructuous.
