The Social Construction of Terrorism Through Political Discourse in the United States available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This study explores the social construction of terrorism in the United States. Specific attention is paid to the role "political language" plays in the social construction of terrorism. I begin by reviewing the literature in defining and constructing crime and deviance in general. Following, the speeches delivered by President George W. Bush are examined in detail to identify patterns within the political language that socially construct terrorism in the U.S. In order to make sense of the political discourse in the social constructionist framework, six rehtorical themes or patterns were identified with regard to terrorism: terrorism as functional, being inherently good, the nature of the enemy, terrorism as a global phenomenon, "war on terror" as a different war, and inherent contradictions in the political discourse. This study revealed that political language contributes to and perpetuates the social construction of terrorism in the United States.

Download and read online ebook The Oxford Handbook of Terrorism write by Erica Chenoweth. This book was released on 2019-03-14. The Oxford Handbook of Terrorism available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The Oxford Handbook of Terrorism systematically integrates the substantial body of scholarship on terrorism and counterterrorism before and after 9/11. In doing so, it introduces scholars and practitioners to state of the art approaches, methods, and issues in studying and teaching these vital phenomena. This Handbook goes further than most existing collections by giving structure and direction to the fast-growing but somewhat disjointed field of terrorism studies. The volume locates terrorism within the wider spectrum of political violence instead of engaging in the widespread tendency towards treating terrorism as an exceptional act. Moreover, the volume makes a case for studying terrorism within its socio-historical context. Finally, the volume addresses the critique that the study of terrorism suffers from lack of theory by reviewing and extending the theoretical insights contributed by several fields - including political science, political economy, history, sociology, anthropology, criminology, law, geography, and psychology. In doing so, the volume showcases the analytical advancements and reflects on the challenges that remain since the emergence of the field in the early 1970s.
