Terrorism

The specter of terrorism looms large and the quest for security dominates public discourse. Acts of terror are both a symptom and a catalyst of deeper societal fractures. The line between terrorist and freedom fighter is often blurred, depending on one’s perspective.

The measures taken to ensure security—ranging from invasive surveillance to militarized responses—raise critical questions about the balance between liberty and safety. Consider the underlying causes of terrorism, such as political oppression, economic disparity, and cultural alienation.
