It begins with an overview of the analytical and theoretical framework for discussing the subject. Individual chapters then examine terrorist activities from both functional and country-specific perspectives. The book traces fundamental linkages between terrorism and security issues, such as illegal immigration, narcotics trafficking, and other criminal activity. In addition, it considers the issue of convergence - the growing connection between criminal groups and terrorism, and how this may facilitate future violence. Written by a range of experts in the field, the individual chapters reflect a variety of perspectives. The contributions fall into two broad categories - chapters that directly address terrorism (the groups, their ideologies, their modus operandi, their origins, and state responses to them); and chapters that address the \"enabling environment\" that exists in Southeast Asia (the role of transnational crime, porous borders, convergence between terrorism and crime).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46930383044759,"sku":"9780765614346","price":3458.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780765614346.webp?v=1771606555","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/terrorism-and-violence-in-southeast-asia-transnational-challenges-to-states-and-regional-stability-9780765614346","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
