What are the origins and nature of terror and terrorism in the United States
and beyond? This book of essays about the history and contemporary reality of
terror reveals little-known aspects of a compelling subject. Since the
American and French Revolutions, governments and their opponents have used
terror and terrorism for different political reasons. We learn how terror and
terrorism have marked the evolution of social values and have entered into
cultural expression of all types - literature, music, television, cinema - and
have influenced the formation of ideologies and political institutions. The
authors of the introduction and eighteen chapters comprising Terror and Its
Representations show how a sensitive subject can be treated with conviction
while maintaining the critical distance necessary for serious debate.
