Terrorist's Creed: Fanatical Violence and the Human Need for Meaning (Modernism and...)

Terrorist's Creed: Fanatical Violence and the Human Need for Meaning (Modernism and…) by Roger Griffin
2012 | ISBN: 0230241298 | English | 280 pages | EPUB | 1 MB

A study of the origins and motivations behind terrorism. Roger Griffin explores the nature of fear in post-modern society, alongside the "metapolitical" universe of the terrorist. Widely studied is the terrorist's "rational" aim to achieve objectives through violent means, but this work highlights the impulsive and passionate drivers of violence.
