Abstract

In the modern world, major political actors are not always nation-states, hence the rise of terrorist groups, like al-Qaeda, as major actors in international affairs. This new situation calls for new paradigms in thinking – one term for this is the ‘Age of Fear.’ The transnational nature of the global terrorist movement presents challenges to our counterterrorist strategy. This article explores the ramifications of this situation and how best to deal with it.
