title = "Terrorism as «political world». Identity, strategy, values: notes for a cultural analysis of terrorism",
abstract = "This paper examines some explanations of the logic of terrorism, which, respectively, assign a central role to individual psychology, to the rational choice of the group and to values. The author argues that the logic of terrorism can be fully understood only as a reflection of the {\textquoteleft}cultural{\textquoteright} building of collective identities and individual identities. For this reason, he outlines a framework for a cultural analysis of terrorism, and proposes the concept of {\textquoteleft}political world{\textquoteright} to represent the set of symbolic production that characterizes terrorism.",
