Stand und Perspektiven der politikwissenschaftlichen Terrorismusforschung

  • Chapter
Terrorismusforschung in Deutschland

Zusammenfassung

Dieser Beitrag möchte eine kurze Einführung in den Stand und die Perspektiven der politikwissenschaftlichen Terrorismusforschung bieten. In der Politikwissenschaft sind vor allem drei Fragestellungen immer wieder im Mittelpunkt der Forschung zu finden: Was ist Terrorismus? Was verursacht Terrorismus? Welche Gegenmaßnahmen können gegen den Terrorismus eingesetzt werden? Der Artikel trägt die jeweils einschlägigen Forschungsergebnisse zusammen und bietet so einen Überblick über den derzeitigen Erkenntnisstand bezüglich dieser policy-relevanten Fragen. Darüber hinaus möchte der Beitrag einige der Problematiken der Terrorismusforschung aufzeigen und über neuere Entwicklungen wie der Kritischen Terrorismusforschung reflektieren. Im Ergebnis wird festgestellt, dass sowohl traditionelle als auch kritische Herangehensweisen häufig um dieselben Probleme kreisen und substanzielle Fortschritte so erschwert werden.
