Rejecting a narrow Western construction of terrorism, Jalata focuses on acts of terrorism, and policies supporting them, committed by state actors from above as well as resistance from below. Jalata examines terrorism from above in the colonial Americas, Australia, and Africa. These analyses not only lay the groundwork for critiquing the growth of al-Qaeda and the spread of multi-national terrorism in the 21\u003csup\u003est\u003c\/sup\u003e century, but they also make a case for fundamental humanitarian policy changes to promote peace and empowerment.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e--Wanda Rushing, Professor Emerita, Department of Sociology, University of Memphis, USA, and author of \u003ci\u003eThe Paradox of Place: Globalization in the American South\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e ​\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAsafa Jalata is Professor of Sociology and Global and Africana Studies at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 271\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 09, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52732085469491,"sku":"9781349568666","price":96.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/bUdnZThBM0JkejQ5Um8vekZsRmhhZz09.webp?v=1763877690","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/phases-of-terrorism-in-the-age-of-globalization-from-christopher-columbus-to-osama-bin-laden-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
