Comparative Politics and the War on Terror: A Collection of Faculty and Student Essays, University of San Diego - Lisa Papera - Paperback

The American "War on Terror" has not only mobilized our military and law enforcement communities, but also our publishers and printing presses. The literature on international security and terror has, to offer an awkward metaphor, exploded in the roughly four years since September 2001, and now nourishes a variety of new or substantially reorganized university and research programs in Homeland Security, WMD Terror, Politics and Religion, and Regional (especially Middle East and South Asian) Studies. But compared with this avalanche of incisive and often argumentative readings on the American dimension of terror, discussions of other countries' experiences and perspectives remain more modest in number and scope. This volume of comparative essays was conceived as a partial remedy to the literary lacuna.Papera, Lisa is the author of 'Comparative Politics and the War on Terror: A Collection of Faculty and Student Essays, University of San Diego - Lisa Papera - Paperback' with ISBN 9780976316220 and ISBN 0976316226.
