About this Course 'The State of the Art and its Discontents'

Critically reviewing existing research on terrorism requires a thorough understanding of how knowledge on this subject is produced and utilised by a range of actors both within and beyond the walls of the academy. This course will hone students’ ability to critically review academic knowledge by delving into some of the main dilemma’s facing terrorism scholars. These range from academic agenda setting (how are research topics and questions determined?) and methodological challenges (how to study a controversial phenomenon like terrorism) to the question of evaluation (how do we know whether the many applied studies have value?). Students will get to know the state of the art on terrorism studies, and specifically where it has fallen short in terms of topical coverage, concepts, methods and real-world impact. For instance, what have been the consequences of the field’s long-established difficulties with accessing reliable primary sources? The course will combine interactive working methods and team work with individual study.
