Attempting to make sense of these atrocities and their antecedents, a body of literature has accumulated since 9\/11 which offers a psychoanalytic perspective on terrorism. This research provides a reflective space within which the unconscious motivations, primitive conflicts, fantasies and impulses that underpin the extreme mindsets and violent actions of the individuals and groups involved may be explored, offering insights complementary to those of different disciplines - sociological, political, cultural and other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book brings together contemporary psychoanalytic writers and practitioners involved in the study of radicalisation, fundamentalism and terrorism. Some of the authors have worked with terrorists, thus grounding their reflections and insights in direct clinical contact with these individuals. Understanding the motivations of the perpetrators includes elucidation of the wider group dynamics of minority populations, where the perpetuation of violence that is seen as terrorism may be viewed by its perpetrators as a justifiable response to collective experiences of subjugation, humiliation and injustice suffered over generations. Understanding such perspectives is not colluding with the aggressors, but rather it may contribute to interventions at both individual and global levels that attempt to break the deadly cycle of violence. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book was originally published as two special issues of \u003ci\u003ePsychoanalytic Psychotherapy. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJessica Yakeley\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Consultant Psychiatrist in Forensic Psychotherapy and Director at the Portman Clinic, London, UK, and Associate Medical Director of the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust, London, UK.
