Abstract

This Journal utilizes a thorough literature review approach to explore the evolving relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) and its potential use as a tool for terrorism. With the rapid advancement of AI technologies, there is a growing concern about their possible misuse by terrorist groups. This study extensively examines existing research, policy documents, and expert opinions and investigates the complex connections between AI and terrorism. The literature review delves into historical examples, current case studies, and emerging trends to clarify the various ways in which AI could be employed for harmful purposes by terrorist organizations. By analyzing recruitment strategies, communication methods, propaganda dissemination, and attack planning, the study offers a detailed understanding of the potential risks associated with the intersection of AI and terrorism. Ethical and legal considerations are thoroughly examined, addressing issues of accountability and the necessity for regulatory frameworks to guide the ethical use of AI technologies in the context of terrorism. In response to the identified risks

Abstract

This paper explores the role of state-sponsored terrorism as a tool in proxy wars, examining its effectiveness in achieving short-term geopolitical objectives and its long-term consequences. By analyzing historical and contemporary case studies, such as Iran’s support for Hezbollah and Pakistan’s backing of militant groups in Kashmir, the paper demonstrates how states use financial, military, and intelligence resources to empower non-state actors. The analysis applies realist, constructivist, and asymmetrical warfare theories to understand the motivations behind state sponsorship and the risks involved, including blowback and international sanctions. The paper concludes by assessing the future of state-sponsored terrorism in light of evolving global security dynamics and counter-terrorism measures.

Abstract

The interplay between terrorism and technology in Central Africa has intensified, particularly with Boko Haram’s rise. This research explores how emerging technologies enhance Boko Haram's operations and the corresponding counter-terrorism efforts. It examines Boko Haram’s use of social media for recruitment, encrypted messaging for secure communication, and advanced weaponry like drones and improvised explosive devices (IEDs). These technologies have expanded Boko Haram’s reach and operational efficiency, challenging security forces. The study also evaluates technological countermeasures implemented by Central African governments and international bodies, including surveillance, cyber intelligence, and data analytics. It assesses the effectiveness of these measures, noting successes and obstacles such as limited resources and rapidly evolving threats. Using a qualitative method, the research explores cybersecurity dynamics, including Boko Haram’s cyber-attacks on critical infrastructure and its use of the internet for radicalization. The study identifies gaps in current cybersecurity defenses and provides strategic recommendations for improvement. These include adopting advanced surveillance and data analysis tools, enhancing regional cooperation for intelligence sharing, and increasing investment in cybersecurity. The aim is to develop a more effective counter-terrorism strategy informed by technological advancements.

Abstract

The study investigated the impact of crime on interstate road transport operations in north-central Nigeria. The study relies on descriptive statistics to describe the features of the populations. 200 questionnaires were purposefully administered to the four major interstate motor parks in the capital of some north-central states (i.e., Minna, Lokoja, Benue, and Lafia) using random sampling techniques. The gathered data was analysed using percentages and charts, while the T-test statistics were used to test the study hypothesis. The result shows that there is a statistically significant influence of crimes on interstate transport operations in north-central Nigeria. The study concluded that improving the safety of the road transport network will motivate transport operators to operate more efficiently on the routes.

Abstract

Bioterrorism represents a growing global threat, necessitating robust preparedness frameworks to safeguard national security. This study aims to assess Indonesia's bioterrorism preparedness by identifying key challenges and proposing strategic frameworks for improvement. Using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), this quantitative research examines the relationship between Government Capacity (independent variable), Crisis Management Effectiveness (intervening variable), and National Security Preparedness (dependent variable). A structured survey was distributed to key stakeholders, including public health officials, security experts, and policymakers, yielding 100 valid responses. Data analysis through SEM revealed that Government Capacity significantly influences Crisis Management Effectiveness, which in turn positively impacts National Security Preparedness. Moreover, Crisis Management Effectiveness partially mediates the relationship between Government Capacity and National Security Preparedness, highlighting its critical role as an intervening factor. The findings underscore the importance of enhancing government capacity through investments in biosecurity infrastructure, interagency coordination, and public health training. Strengthening crisis management mechanisms can amplify national security preparedness against bioterrorism threats. The study concludes with recommendations for targeted policy interventions and collaborative frameworks to bolster Indonesia's resilience to bioterrorism.

Abstract

The changing nature of modern terrorism has proved a major threat to the global security architecture. The 9/11 terrorist attack on the United States of America, the world's ‘Police State’, is apparent. Consequently, the international community launched collective fights at different levels to deal with it. However, the nation-state at the individual level also designed a ‘Counter-Terror (CT)’ policy mechanism within the scope of the foreign policy paradigm to safeguard national security. India, since its independence, has consistently faced security challenges from terrorism from its neighbours, and has followed the same suit. The major CT policy was grounded in the post-2001 period, when an attack on the Parliament happened. ‘Zero Tolerance with Terrorism’ is the principal ideology on which India’s entire CT policy framework is built. Of course, it led to the ‘securitisation’ of foreign policy by prioritising national security above all other interests. This research paper has a major objective to analyse the evolution of CT narratives within India’s foreign policy, for which primary and secondary literature have been utilised. Recommendations of the research include that to wipe out ambiguity, the Indian government must publish a white paper concerning a coherent ‘National Terrorism Policy’.

Abstract

Departing from the idea that suicide attacks are a special form of terrorism, this article aims to shed light on some of its characteristics and particular dynamics to help better understand the phenomenon and effectively combat it. To that end, the article begins by exploring the trend of both types of terrorism, suicide and non-suicide, for after reviewing the main theories and findings on the topic by the academia in the literature review section. Following this overview, four variables are identified as potential drivers of suicide terrorism: inequality, foreign intervention, political freedom, and Islamic faith. The expected relationship between these variables and suicide terrorism conforms the hypotheses of the work. In a nutshell, a positive relationship is expected for all of them, except for the political regime, for which a negative relationship is predicted. By means of a logistic regression with a binary outcome model and data from the Global Terrorism Database between 2010 and 2020 (a total of 97,987 attacks), the analysis confirms all the hypotheses. The article ends by applying these findings to recent regional trends to explain the variations, and by issuing some policy recommendations that will help fighting the phenomenon.
