Terrorism: A Philosophical Enquiry

Autor A. Schwenkenbecher
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2012
This book engages with the most urgent philosophical questions pertaining to the problem of terrorism. What is terrorism? Could it ever be justified? Assuming that terrorism is just one of many kinds of political violence, the book denies that it is necessarily wrong and worse than war. In fact, it may be justifiable under certain circumstances.
