Description

Product Description With all new and expanded chapters, the third edition provides an in-depth look at how terrorists exploit mass media to get attention, spread fear and anxiety among the targets of this sort of violence, and threaten further attacks. The traditional news media's appetite for shocking, sensational, and tragic stories has always resulted in over-coverage of terrorist events and threats. But today, social media, such as Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, allow terrorists to communicate directly with huge audiences around the globe spreading their propaganda, radicalizing and recruiting followers, and providing know-how to "lone wolves." On the other hand, governments in democracies, too, utilize mass media to enlist public support for counterterrorist measures. This volume will help readers to understand the centrality of media considerations in both terrorism and counterterrorism. Review Nacos's needful third edition is the best there is. No other book is as accessible, as comprehensive, as insightful, as timely, or as useful in parsing bitter election-year debates about how to define, discuss, and respond to terrorist violence at home and abroad. Every American should read it. Now.--David A. Green, associate professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice and author of When Children Kill Children: Penal Populism and Political Culture About the Author Brigitte L. Nacos is an adjunct professor in political science at Columbia University.
