Almost two decades after the events of 9/11, this Handbook offers a comprehensive insight into the evolution and development of terrorism and insurgency since then. Gathering contributions from a broad range of perspectives, it both identifies new technological developments in terrorism and insurgency, and addresses the distinct state responses to the threat of political, or religiously motivated violence; not only in the Middle East and Europe, but also in Africa, South and Southeast Asia, and North and South America.

‘All in all, this Handbook of Terrorism and Counter Terrorism Post 9/11 is a welcome addition to existing efforts to survey the field of (counter-)terrorism studies. No university library should be without it.’
– Alex P. Schmid, Perspectives on Terrorism

‘Prescient, probing and provocative, this Handbook of Terrorism and Counter Terrorism Post 9/11 is a timely and welcome addition to the literature. It gathers in one volume the research and assessments of some of the field's best and sharpest scholars to render a reappraisal of the struggle against this continuing threat.’
– Bruce Hoffman, Georgetown University, US, author of Inside Terrorism

‘The Handbook of Terrorism and Counter Terrorism Post 9/11 represents an impressive intellectual balance between presenting a global overview of the subject and providing insightful regional analyses of how different terrorist movements actually operate. It is surely the most comprehensive single volume currently available in the field of terrorism studies and is highly recommended.’
——迈克尔·埃文斯,澳大利亚国防学院

‘This is a welcome and important Handbook which offers a fresh perspective on some of the most important debates about national security and counter terrorism in the twenty-first century. It looks beyond the West and is not afraid to challenge simplistic narratives and conventional wisdom. The Handbook is assembled by distinguished experts in the field but it is pleasing to see the work of so many younger scholars foregrounded across a considerable range of areas.’
