He scrutinises in detail how the concepts 'terrorism', 'radicalisation', and 'counter-terrorism' have developed as academic objects of study and political objects of governance. In the Element, Nilsson brings to the fore systemic problems of the field of terrorism studies as well as the various anti-terrorist apparatuses developed by EU member states. Open Source Jihad should be required reading for anyone interested in current European political and social events.-- CN BP190.5.T47 SN 1108448747 SN 9781108448741 K1 Terrorism : Government policy : Europe K1 Terrorism : Study and teaching : Europe K1 Terrorism : Religious aspects : Islam
