No portion of the globe is out of harm’s way from the menace of terrorism. No segment of life is fae from terrorist attacks. Terrorism has become the noxious mace of non-state actors to challenge state sovereignty. it is also used as an instrument of State Policy in some regions to trouble neighbouring open societies. The struggle of the international community to tackle this threat ever more appears to be mirage. Scholars, officials, commentators, security agencies, all have been incessantly engrossed in devising new techniques and methods to diagnose the cause and deal with the consequences of terrorism. This edited volume is a humble attempt to compile thought and perspectives of India scholars on this cerebral theme of the 21st century and join the ongoing endeavor worldwide to seek solutions to this intractable peril. It is an earnest endeavor by the editors to amalgamate these perspectives on events and issues since the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the US.
