But how far, and in what precise ways, has counter-terrorism actually succeeded? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBased on the author's experience of studying terrorism and counter-terrorism for over three decades, \u003cem\u003eDoes Counter-Terrorism Work?\u003c\/em\u003e offers an historically-grounded, systematic, and expert interrogation of the effectiveness of state responses to terrorist violence. Previous analyses have too often tended to be polarized, simplistic, and short-termist; they have also lacked a comprehensive framework against which properly to assess the (in)efficacy of counter-terrorist efforts over time. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRichard English's pioneering book carefully defines what effective counter-terrorism would involve, and then tests that layered framework through cross-case, balanced, historically-focused comparison of important counter-terrorist campaigns. Drawing on a vast range of source material, \u003cem\u003eDoes Counter-Terrorism Work?\u003c\/em\u003e assesses in detail the strategic, tactical, and personal or political achievements and failures evident this blood-stained field of work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book is intended to stimulate debate and reflection among scholars, students, practitioners, and the wider public. Every one of us is daily affected by the choices made in counter-terrorist politics and policy. This deeply original book helps us to understand how society and politics have been shaped by such decisions in the past, and prepares us to respond more effectively in the future to one of the world's most important challenges.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0192843346\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780192843340\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/28\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.60h x 6.40w x 1.00d","brand":"Richard English","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45897516220671,"sku":"9780192843340","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8ae6509e-f85e-497d-a4d0-fbaad2829b3d.jpg?v=1721374110","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/does-counter-terrorism-work-richard-english-9780192843340","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
