Abstract

Querelles fratricides, luttes pour le pouvoir, dénonciations, arrestations, exécutions, puissance dévastatrice de la haine et débats passionnels… la bien nommée Terreur fut l'une des plus grandes déchirures de l'Histoire où la force l'a emporté sur la loi et le droit. C'est cette fureur toujours recommencée qu'Evelyne Lever évoque dans ce livre. Elle nous donne un récit brûlant des événements ayant pour cadre la capitale pendant les mois qui voient la chute de la monarchie, l'exécution du roi, la radicalisation de la Révolution et l'instauration d'une dictature révolutionnaire. La Terreur institutionnalisée devient un moyen de gouvernement. Les principaux acteurs de l'épopée sont présents dans cette fresque haletante : Louis XVI et Marie-Antoinette, les principaux leaders des révolutionnaires, Robespierre, Danton, Marat, des femmes passionnées par les causes qu'elles défendent, telle Mme Roland et aussi les Parisiens dans leur vie quotidienne, qu'ils soient aristocrates, bourgeois ou sans-culottes.

Abstract

This volume comprises some of the key essays by Professor Crenshaw, from 1972 to the present-day, on the causes, processes and consequences of terrorism.Since the early 1970s, scholars and practitioners have tried to explain terrorism and to assess the effectiveness of government responses to the threat. From its beginnings in a small handful of analytical studies, the research field has expanded to thousands of entries, with an enormous spike following the 9/11 attacks. The field of terrorism studies is now impressive in terms of quantity, scope, and variety. Professor Crenshaw had studied terrorism since the late 1960s, well before it was topical, and this selection of her work represents the development of her thought over time in four areas:defining terrorism and identifying its causesthe different methods used to explain terrorism, including strategic, organisational and psychological approacheshow campaigns of terrorism endhow governments can effectively contribute to the ending of terrorism.This collection of essays by one of the pioneering thinkers in the field of terrorism studies will be essential reading for all students of political violence and terrorism, security studies and IR/politics in general.

Abstract

"Conceptualizing terrorism argues that, in the post 9/11 world, the need for an internationally agreed definition of terrorism is more important than it has ever been, despite the challenges that such an endeavour presents. Indeed, in a global context, where the term is often applied selectively and pejoratively according to where one's interests lie, there is a real need to instill some analytical quality into the concept of terrorism, not least in order to prevent the term being manipulated to justify all manner of counter-terrorism responses. Not only is this important for the policymaking context but it is also an imperative task within academia - in order to strengthen the theoretical foundation of terrorism studies, for all other terrorism related theories rest on what one means by terrorism in the first place. Written from an academic perspective, the book explores the prospects for 'terrorism' as an analytical concept. Arguing that the essence of this particular form of political violence lies in its intent to generate a psychological impact beyond the immediate victims, it goes on to propose the adoption of three key preliminary assumptions that have implications for the definitional debate and that it suggests might help to increase the analytical potential of 'terrorism'. The book then considers potential elements of a definition before concluding with its own conceptualization of terrorism"--Dust jacket.
