Abstract

Psychological perspectives on understanding terrorism from the perspective of the perpetrators are, at present, limited, obscure and wholly underdeveloped. This short paper addresses what a ‘psychology of terrorism’ currently implies in this regard, and suggests how a more nuanced focus can help shape future research efforts, providing a number of conceptual and practical benefits.IT
