This edited collection surveys how non-Western states have responded to the threats of domestic and international terrorism in ways consistent with and reflective of their broad historical, political, cultural and religious traditions. It presents a series of eighteen case studies of counterterrorism theory and practice in the non-Western world, including countries such as China, Japan, India, Pakistan, Egypt and Brazil. These case studies, written by country experts and drawing on original language sources, demonstrate the diversity of counter-terrorism theory and practice and illustrate how the world ‘sees’ and responds to terrorism is different from the way that the United States, the United Kingdom and many European governments do. This volume – the first ever comprehensive account of counter-terrorism in the non-Western world – will be of interest to students, scholars, students and policymakers responsible for developing counter-terrorism policy.Less

This chapter reflects on his efforts to educate students about the psychospiritual insights of Jungian psychology and discuss with them the criticism against Jung. In recent years, Taylor has done more teaching in Korea, China, and other Asian settings, enabling him to offer particularly salient observations about the challenges and rewards of translating Jungian ideas in non-Western contexts. The chapter emphasizes the cross-cultural relevance of archetypal theory, not in a naïve or simplistic way but rather as the ultimate psychological basis on which humans recognize and relate to each other. The chapter's argument highlights the strong theological implications of Jung's theory of the collective unconscious, implications that Jung as a psychologist did not feel qualified to pursue but that strongly resonate today with many liberal Christians.Less

This introduction chapter identifies the rationale for a comparative study of the counterterrorism responses of non-Western states. It argues that much of the counterterrorism literature is biased towards Western perspectives, particularly that of the United States, United Kingdom, and Israel, and tends to ignore the distinct counterterrorism approaches of non-Western states. This chapter defines what is meant by “non-Western” in this volume and identifies the drivers – historical, social, political, cultural and religious – that determine their counterterrorism response.Less
