Description

We are living in an age of terrorism where the world peace is under the gravest threat of transnational terrorist groups which are aiming to destroy the vital organs of freedom and to cover the international body with deadly networks. Transnational terrorism poses an important threat to the stability of the global community.

The book shows that transnational terrorism is now emerging as a serious threat in its own right to international stability in the years ahead and suggest that our failure to recognise this threat and respond appropriately will bequeath to serious and long-term problems in future which may be partially avoidable.
