This workshop brings together a number of European and American academics to explore the patterns of terrorist violence in Europe since the late 1960s. Most European terrorist groups have now entered into a war termination phase prior to which they participated in terrorist campaigns of varying degrees of intensity. The goal will be to isolate factors both endogenous and exogenous to the organization that have driven these patterns of escalation and de-escalation. The workshop will also examine the response of governments acting both unilaterally and through the institutions of the EU to respond to terrorist violence, and will explore the implications of this experience for future terrorist activity in Europe.
Attendance is by invitation only.
