About

Studies in Conflict and Terrorism 'aims to cast new light on the origins and implications of conflict in the 21st Century and to illuminate new approaches and solutions to countering the growth and escalation of contemporary sub-state violence.' The editors of the journal look to publish theoretical and empirical studies with the aim of contributing to a better understanding of the causes of terrorism and insurgency. The journal therefore addresses 'security challenges fuelled by religious and nationalist strife, moribund peace processes, disputes over natural resources, and transnational organized crime.'
