About this Course 'Researching Terrorism'

Researching terrorism requires a thorough understanding of how knowledge on this subject is produced, by whom, and the robustness of this knowledge as it is utilized by a range of actors both within and beyond the walls of the academy. By combining topical subject content and the literature review research skills, students will strengthen their knowledge and understanding of how the field of terrorism studies developed, and strengths and limitations of methods, theories, concepts and ethics within the field. This course will hone students’ ability to review, synthesize, and assess academic knowledge of (counter-)terrorism. Students will get to know the state of the art in the multidisciplinary field of terrorism studies and delve into ongoing academic and policy debates. The course introduces students to advanced topics and concepts in (counter-) terrorism and (counter-)radicalisation thereby creating a foundation for future learning in the TPV specialisation and current/future careers. The course will combine interactive working methods and teamwork with individual study.
