MULTILATERAL COUNTER-TERRORISM- PETER ROMANIUK

Contemporary terrorism is a global phenomenon requiring a globalized response. In this book, Peter Romaniuk assesses the extent to which states pursue multilateral responses to the threats they face from terrorists. Providing a concise history and a clear discussion of current patterns of counter‑terrorist cooperation, the work examines how existing international institutions have been affected by the U.S.-led “global war on terror,” launched after the 9/11 attacks, and argues that, while there are notable examples of successful cooperation, the broader trend often resembles a competition for influence over outcomes.

Key features:
– Analyses a wide spectrum of institutions, from the United Nations and its various bodies to military, intelligence, and law‑enforcement agencies
– Explains the full range of cooperative counter‑terrorist activities and the patterns across them, from the use of intelligence and military force to criminal‑law measures, financial controls, and diplomacy
– Examines the conditions under which states cooperate to suppress terrorism
– Evaluates how existing international institutions have been affected by the U.S.-led “global war on terror” after the 9/11 attacks

Multilateral counter‑terrorism is an essential resource for students and scholars of international politics, criminology, and terrorism studies.
