Semaine 1
Welcome

  • In this module, you can find all the information you need in order to be able to successfully complete the course. 

Semaine 2
Definition and Essence of Terrorism

  • Welcome to the first module! You will learn about the definition of terrorism. What exactly is terrorism? Who and where are its victims? After completing this module, you will understand why it is so difficult to arrive at a generally accepted definition of this term. 

Semaine 3
Researching Terrorism and Counterterrorism

  • In this module, you will learn more about terrorism and counterterrorism studies. It is a relatively new field of study that owes much to research in related disciplines. You will get an overview of where the key centres and scholars are located. Also, you will understand the three main approaches that are used in this academic field and recognize their strengths and weaknesses. 

Semaine 4
Assumptions on Terrorism

  • The subject of terrorism often falls prey to unfounded assumptions. Media, politicians, but also scholars frequently make far-reaching claims about this topic, such as the notion that terrorism is caused by poverty. In this module, we will critically investigate some of these assumptions to see if they are indeed true, partly true, false or perhaps even a myth (a widely held belief that is nevertheless still false). 

Semaine 5
Assumptions on Counterterrorism

  • In this module, we will continue the work of module 3 and look into five assumptions on counterterrorism. It is highly relevant to keep investigating assumptions that underlie CT-policy, both from an effectiveness perspective (is it really countering terrorism?) but also because these policies often have a large impact on societies and might also have unintended consequences.  

Semaine 6
Dealing with Terrorism and the Future

  • After having tested these assumptions, we will make up the balance sheet. What are some of the remaining “un- and underresearched” topics in (counter)terrorism studies? We will also explore the concepts of fear management and resilience. Finally, we will look into the future of terrorism: what can we expect in the years to come? 

Semaine 7
Making Headlines Today - Foreign Fighters

  • The final module of this course will look into a highly topical and politically sensitive issue of today: foreign fighters. Since the beginning of the civil war, high numbers of foreign fighters have joined the struggle, including many from Western countries. In this module, we will see who these people are and why they are going. Also, we will discuss to what extent these fighters pose a threat and which policy options are available to address this phenomenon. Please note that the world has not stood still since these videos were recorded in October 2014 and that some numbers might already be outdated. We will regularly add an extra video to give a brief update on this issue.
