Is the enterprise of terrorism finally in a retreat? In South Asja, at least, there are some indications that this may be so. With the exception of the apparently indiscriminate slaughters in Nepal since the breakdown of the peace process' with the Maoist rebels in August 2003, fatality rates have registered a decline in almost all theatres in the region.

But is this the prelude to a final winding down of terror, or a tactical hibernation? Until conclusive evidence emerges to the contrary, it is prudent to be sceptical, and to recognize the possibility of a terrorist resurgence.
