It defines our shortcomings in opposing this type of violence by demonstrating how the notion of legitimate violence has been broadened. The impact of the "War on Terror" on the public view of Liberalism is explored, as well as its effects on the role of state authorities in our lives. Thus, this book names the lessons we ought to learn from the actions taken against terrorist organizations UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9783111320427 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9783111320427 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9783111320427/original ER -
