The entry examines the phenomenon of terrorism, highlighting its complexity and multiple causes. It traces the evolution of the term terrorism, from state violence to violence committed by non-state groups. The different types of terrorism that emerged in the 20th century (anarchist, nationalist, revolutionary, and religious) are analyzed, emphasizing the importance of understanding the social, political, and cultural factors that lead some individuals to resort to violence. New movements, such as the far right and animal rights activists, have also emerged, resorting to forms of terrorist violence. It addresses the consequences of terrorism, for both direct and indirect victims, notably due to stigmatization. Finally, it discusses the processes of de-radicalization, highlighting that their effectiveness remains a subject of debate.
