摘要：Research approaches for an understanding of the terrorist phenomenon are suggested. Seven principles explaining terrorism are analyzed by applying a psychosocial approach, with a view to complementing explanations based on sociostructural and psychological variables, which are insufficient and often erroneous. Thus, terrorism is presented as a strategy of political influence, and the psychological attributes of terrorists are explained as the result of several influential social processes. We consider terrorist attacks and campaigns to be based on strategic reasons, but we also assume that the rationality of the terrorist’s perspective is limited. As far as the organizational parameters are concerned, we propose an analogy with social movements of a more general nature, especially with regard to their ideological frameworks of legitimation and resource mobilization processes
