Description
Taylor & Francis Ltd Critical Terrorism Studies An Introduction to Research Methods by Jacob Stump and Priya Dixit
This book is an introduction to critical approaches to terrorism studies. _x000D__x000D_While there is a growing body of Critical Terrorism Studies (CTS) literature devoted to empirical examples and conceptual development, very little has been written about how to systematically carry out this kind of research. Critical Terrorism Studies fills this gap by addressing three key themes:_x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_The position of terrorism studies and critical terrorism studies in the discipline of International Relations (IR)_x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_Theoretical and methodological elaborations of critical approaches to the study of terrorism_x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_Empirical illustrations of those approaches. _x000D__x000D_Drawing upon a range of engaging material, the volume reviews a series of non-variable based methodological approaches. It then goes on to provide empirical examples that illustrate how these approaches have been and can be utilized by students, teachers, and postgraduate researchers alike to critically and rigorously study terrorism. _x000D__x000D_This textbook will be of much interest to students of terrorism studies, sociology, critical security studies, and IR in general._x000D_show more
