Although terrorism is not a novel phenomenon there are valid reasons for supposing that current terrorist operations pose a greater potential threat to liberal democracies than their historical forebears did. However, while many of the reasons for this change in terrorist potential are grounded in physical technological innovation and its consequences, the solutions, either long-term or crisis oriented, are inescapably rooted in behavioural considerations. Current anti-terrorist measures tend to rely excessively on physical technological solutions and are therefore unable to provide useful answers to many of the important questions surrounding terrorism. Since we are dealing with human behaviour it is vital that we assess the contribution that can be made by psychology to the resolution of the problems posed by terrorism. This paper outlines some of the important areas in which psychology has, or could have, a significant role to play in the investigation and control of terrorist activities. |
