In \u003ci\u003eWhat Makes a Terrorist\u003c\/i\u003e, he argues that if we are to correctly assess the root causes of terrorism and successfully address the threat, we must think more like economists do. Krueger examines the factors that motivate individuals to participate in terrorism, drawing inferences from their economic, social, religious, and political backgrounds. Many popular ideas about terrorists are fueled by falsehoods, misinformation, and fearmongering. This 10th anniversary edition of \u003ci\u003eWhat Makes a Terrorist\u003c\/i\u003e puts the threat squarely into perspective, bringing needed clarity to one of the greatest challenges of our generation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alan B.
