A Look at the State of Research on [Counter-] Terrorism and Violent Extremism
VOL. XVII, Issue 4 In continuation of a previous survey published in 2021 in Perspectives on Terrorism, a new survey exploring the state of [counter-]terrorism research, resulted in 50 responses from researchers and directors of think tanks, centres, institutes and programmes in the field of terrorism studies. We had asked them ten topical questions that are both research- and policyorientated, based on suggestions we had earlier received from researchers in the field.

13 hours ago Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and a leading opposition figure on Wednesday created a war-time Cabinet overseeing the fight to avenge a stunning weekend attack by Hamas militants. In the sealed-off Gaza Strip ruled by Hamas, Palestinian suffering mounted as Israeli bombardment demolished neighborhoods and the only power plant ran out of fuel.
