This course begins with a definition of terrorism as the deliberate creation and exploitation of fear through violence. It discusses terrorism from it's modern form beginning in the 19th century, to total war in 1914-1945, to the Cold War and the 1950's, and into its modern day usage. The result has been mutual resort to arms as a first response.
