The ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and the bombings overseas have shown that—despite the "War on Terror"—terrorism is still very much a part of daily life for many individuals. Encyclopedia of Terrorism, Third Edition provides students, researchers, journalists, and policymakers with a complete survey of what seems to be an intractable problem. More than 330 entries organized in an easily accessible, A-to-Z format offer comprehensive treatments of the events, people, organizations, and places that have played a major role in international terrorism. Each entry is placed within its appropriate historical context to help readers understand the wide-ranging motivations behind terrorist actions.

New and updated entries include:

  • Islamic State
  • mass shootings
  • narco-terrorism
  • Paris attacks
  • Pulse nightclub terrorist attack
  • right-wing terrorism
  • San Bernardino attacks
  • school site analysis
  • siege of the U.S. Capitol
