| Summary/Abstract |
Terrorism, a form of violence that deliberately rather than inadvertently targets civilians, should be understood as a process that evolves over long periods of time, rather than as a series of discrete events. This approach helps place the cataclysmic events of September 11, 2001, in comparative perspective. It also avoids the erroneous assumption that radical Islamism and terrorism are synonymous. From a long-term perspective, 9/11 marked neither a culmination of a trend nor a completely new phenomenon. Terrorism is not static-strategy adapts to circumstances and profits from technological advances; states take effective precautions; different ideologies and conditions motivate violence-but there are also important continuities.

| Summary/Abstract |
When rebels also employ terrorism, civil wars can become more intractable. Since the 1980s, jihadism, a form of violent transnational activism, has mobilized civil war rebels, outside entrepreneurs, foreign fighters, and organizers of transnational as well as domestic terrorism. These activities are integral to the jihadist trend, representing overlapping and conjoined strands of the same ideological current, which in turn reflects internal division and dissatisfaction within the Arab world and within Islam. Jihadism, however, is neither unitary nor monolithic. It contains competing power centers and divergent ideological orthodoxies. Different jihadist actors emphasize different priorities and strategies. They disagree, for example, on whether the “near” or the “far” enemy should take precedence. The relationship between jihadist terrorism and civil war is far from uniform or constant. This essay traces the trajectory of this evolution, beginning in the 1980s in the context of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.
