Ted Honderich is one of the world's foremost philosophers of the Left. This is a revised edition of his classic text, Violence for Equality: Inquiries in Political Philosophy. It became a benchmark in political philosophy twenty years ago and came out in three editions. Now revised and updated, Terrorism for Humanity raises fundamental questions about the morality of terrorism or political violence -- questions that are cruelly inescapable in the light of recent events and the 'war on terror'. What is to be said for and against the terrorism that is directed to the goal of the Principle of Humanity -- the rescuing of people from lives of wretchedness? When is such terrorism right, if ever, and when is it wrong? Why is it wrong? In six lucid essays, Honderich challenges the presuppositions, prejudices and inconsistencies of liberal-democratic thinking. He takes hold of subjects with strong implications for liberation-terrorism, including Palestinian terrorism. He refuses to accept that the questions that arise are easily answered. Exploring the moral issues that lie at the heart of his subject, he reminds us that political philosophy should be an attempt to inquire with an open mind -- and that to open one's mind is not necessarily to lose one's convictions. This remarkable book will interest and challenge all teachers and students of philosophy and politics. It will capture anyone who wants actually to think about the morality of terrorism. Book jacket.

Faisal Devji argues that new forms of militancy, such as the actions of al-Qaeda, are informed by the same desire for agency and equality that animates other humanitarian interventions, such as environmentalism and pacifism. To the militant, victimized Muslims are more than just symbols of ethnic and religious persecution-they represent humanity's centuries-long struggle for legitimacy and agency. Acts of terror, therefore, are fueled by the militant's desire to become a historical actor on the global stage. Though they have yet to build concrete political institutions, militant movements have formed a kind of global society, and as Devji makes clear, this society pursues the same humanitarian objectives that drive more benevolent groups.

Ted Honderich investigates the morality of the September 11th attacks and what terrorism tells us about ourselves and our obligations. Did we have a responsibility for what took place? Did we respond to it as we should have? What are we to do now? "After the Terror" inquires into the "natural fact" of morality and the worked-out moralities of philosophers. It reaches to the moral core of our lives. Honderich writes, "We can be held partly responsible for the 3,000 deaths at the twin towers and at the Pentagon. We are rightly to be held responsible along with the killers. We share the guilt. Those who condemn us have a reason to do so. Did we bring the killing at the twin towers on ourselves? Did we have it coming? Those offensive questions, and their offensive, but affirmative answer, do contain a truth."

This collection of essays offers a fresh perspective on the definition and origins of terrorism, broadening the field to include slave revolts and urban tensions, and considering how the "war on terrorism" had already matured by 1870 as a way to justify often bloody campaigns against labor unions, nationalist freedom fighters, and reformers.

Terrorism in scope, depth, and awareness has become a twenty-first-century global topic. While some nations claim to have it fully or partly under control, some are yet to come to grips with exactly what it is and what to do with or about it. While it has been in existence in some nations for years, some are just beginning to be impacted by it. Regardless, terrorism is undoubtedly a human-inflicted malignant epidemic that is ravaging humanity. The writing of this book was motivated by Mumuni's interest, training, and research. It is an attempt to help unveil and understand the concept of global terrorism in all its ramifications, and its effect on humanity. The book will be of interest to security operatives and strategists, administrators, researchers, students, social critics, the media, religious leaders, and the general public.

Excerpts "The rise in global artillery, .international, confrontational issues; .the pre-2001 era; .the endless peace negotiations between Jews and Muslims; the unrelenting tumult between tribes and nations of earth; the aftershock of hideous tragedies, and.heightened secularism., all seem to be steering the tide toward a godless future." -Chapter 1 ".others face anguish-struggling to get perhaps even a morsel of rice per day, .; having to watch their family being murdered in cold blood, hustling to the nearest asylum., and so forth." "All these altercations and grievances are also fueled by bigotry, .and prejudice all over the world. .To top it off, men and women continue to take a stand against any notion of the supernatural." ".the ideologies of naturalism, macro-evolution, and humanism have besieged social consciousness. What does that mean? .." -Chapter 2
