Counter-terrorism - Faculty of Arts

Offered by the School of Political and Social Inquiry

The September 11 attacks and Bali bombings have increased the significance of terrorism and political violence in international politics. This program provides a critical understanding of terrorism and how it is constructed and reproduced. It addresses diverse and multifaceted factors involved in enacting and preventing terrorism and other security concerns. The program includes units on terrorisms (state, religious, revolutionary and right wing); the political, theological intellectual bases of terrorism; political violence and political movements; and country and regional studies. The course is appropriate for professionals working in law enforcement, public service, defence and diplomacy.
