Griffin, Roger.

Terrorist's creedfanatical violence and the human need for meaning /[electronic resource] :Roger Griffin. - Basingstoke :Palgrave Macmillan,2012. - 1 online resource.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

The Liquid Fear of Terrorism -- Terrorism as Zealotry: Defending the Nomos -- Modernist Terrorism: Creating the Nomos -- The Metapolitics of Terrorism in Fiction -- The Metapolitics of Terrorist Radicalization -- Modern Zealots of the Sacred Homeland -- Modernist Terrorism Red, Black, and White -- The Hybrid Metapolitics of Religious Terrorism -- Islamism's Global War against Nomocide -- Afterthoughts on the Nature of Terrorism.

In the tsunami of publications on terrorism which followed 9/11, few have probed effectively into the deeper layers of motivation that enable normal human beings to carry out such unimaginable acts. Terrorist's Creed casts a penetrating beam of empathetic understanding into the disturbing and murky psychological world of fanatical violence, explaining how the fanaticism it demands stems from the profoundly human need to imbue existence with meaning and transcendence. Drawing on sociology, psychology, novels and films, it shows how the need to defend or create a territorial or purely cultural 'home' in an unforgiving universe can precipitate a process of 'heroic doubling' which in extreme circumstances legitimates murder and suicide for the sake of a 'higher' cause.
