  abstract: "'Terrorism and Counter-Terrorism: Ethics and Liberal Democracy' provides sobering analyses of the nature of terrorism and the moral justification - or lack thereof - of terrorist actions and counter-terrorism measures in today's world. Utilizing a variety of thought-provoking philosophical arguments, the historic roots of terrorism and its contemporary incarnations are explored in depth. Detailed analyses of organizations such as the IRA, the ANC, Hamas and Al-Qaeda will reveal the many faces of terrorism and its disparate motives and tactics. Discussion of the nature and scope of terrorism and whether it can ever be morally justified is balanced with analysis of counter-terrorism strategies and the methods and moral limits of counter-terrorism."
  table of contents: The varieties of terrorism -- Defining terrorism -- Terrorism and collective responsibility -- Terrorism-as-crime -- Terrorism, war and states of emergency -- Torture -- Bioterrorism and the dual-use dilemma.
