International terrorism as a factor in solving geopolitical goals

2024

International terrorism has become particularly acute in recent years. Among the acute political, economic and social problems that concern the world, terrorism represents one of the main dangers. Nowadays, terrorism has entered everyday life, posing a real threat to the national security of many countries around the world. Purpose of the work: to study the problem of terrorism and its solution at the state level. The specificity and level of modern civilization is characterized by the existence of acute global problems that affect the fate of not only individuals, social groups, nations, classes, regions and continents, but all of humanity as a whole. Terrorism is one of the most dangerous and difficult to predict phenomena of our time, which is acquiring increasingly diverse forms and threatening proportions. Terrorist acts most often cause massive human casualties, entail the destruction of material and spiritual values that sometimes cannot be restored, sow hostility between states, provoke wars, mistrust and hatred between social and national groups, which sometimes cannot be overcome within the life of an entire generation. Terrorism on an international scale is increasingly becoming a factor in the geopolitical influence of world centers of power. The scale of terrorism and its interstate nature have made it absolutely necessary to establish an international system to counter it, coordinate the efforts of various states on a longterm basis and at the highest level, and create international organizations to combat it. Terrorism, having long gone beyond national boundaries, has acquired an international character. This crime belongs to those types of criminal violence, the victim of which can be anyone, even those who have not the slightest connection to the conflict that gave rise to the terrorist act. The transformation of the problem of international terrorism into one of the most pressing global problems of our time related to the sphere of international relations and geopolitical goals is due to the following reasons: 1) international terrorism is becoming increasingly widespread on a planetary scale. It manifests itself both in regions of traditional international conflicts (for example, the Middle East, South Asia, Russia), and even the most developed and prosperous states (in particular the USA and Western Europe) were not immune from this dangerous phenomenon; 2) international terrorism poses a serious threat to the security of individual states and the entire world community as a whole. Every year hundreds of acts of international terrorism are committed in the world, and their victims number thousands of killed and maimed people; 3) to combat international terrorism, the efforts of one great power or even a group of highly developed states are not enough. Overcoming international terrorism as an escalating global problem requires the collective efforts of the majority of states and peoples on our planet, the entire world community.

TERRORISM: A THREAT TO SECURITY AND HUMAN EXISTENCE

IJPA, 2019

Terrorism attracted a lot of attention in recent year. Many theories have been developed by scholars to explain terrorism, its causes, while people resort to extreme violence to make their point. This paper examines some selected theories that could help us gain insight into terrorism and various activities associated with it. One of the major recommendation made by this paper is that terrorism as a global issue require increased global attention. There must be concerted effort from both state and non-state actors to halt further spread of terrorism. The paper concludes that given the increasing numbers of terrorist groups and the way they regenerate through a structured program of recruitment, adoption of modern technologies and modern weapons, the world as we know could be in a great danger of destruction.

Contemporary terrorism as a global threat

2013

Terrorism has been present in human history since ancient times, but it was not considered a serious threat for global security. The attacks on the World Trade Center have demonstrated that it is a threat of a global nature. It is an effective weapon used by the "weaker" against the stronger opponents. The subject of terrorism is very complex, difficult and elusive. There is a divergence among the scholars in understanding terrorism studies due to the lack of uniform criteria for the determination of a clear definition. Therefore, this article is an attempt to characterize the diversity of the terrorist activities that deviate from the “conventional” terrorism such as agro-terrorism, cyber-terrorism, super-terrorism, etc.). In addition, the paper stresses the need of combating terrorism as a partial solution to improve the safety of the international community.

Terrorism as a Global Security Threat

Journal of US-China Public Administration Journal of US-China Public Administration, 2018

When and how does the ultra-right-wing terrorism period close as their mean in politics with the goal of deterrence and the destruction of the capitalist order? Why does the "Arabian jihad" shift its priorities from the "close enemy" to the "far enemy"? Why did terrorist violence appear more often, in the last couple of decades, in the countries where Muslims are the majority, or why are the perpetrators, in terms of terrorist acts, mostly Muslims? These are the questions which are in the academic discussion centre and analysis of our paper. The paper identifies the causes and discusses the "us" and "them" polarization. The goal is to explain what is behind these paroles through the analysis of world's authors: "War against terrorism", "Unity of a nation", and "The just war". From a theoretical and empirical point of view, emphasizing of the Islamic component in terrorism is unfair at least. We used qualitative research methods, including the desk research, to obtain necessary data to give answers on our research questions.
