Explain how macroeconomic theories of terrorism may have meaning for the nature of counterterrorism. Do you agree with this theory? Why or why not?
What will be an ideal response?
• Macroeconomic theory suggests that counterterrorism policies should be aimed at providing the world's people with economic stability, opportunity, and participation in the mainstream economy.
• Economic policies to counter terrorism would involve supporting states in danger of failure, providing opportunities for people to participate and benefit from economic systems, and eliminating underground economic networks.
• When a state fails and a terrorist group creates its own shell state, the group has no incentive to participate in legitimate economic enterprises.
• When economic globalization threatens the ability of ordinary people to meet their needs, they will find other ways to survive.
• Poverty does not cause terrorism, but economic and political failures may result in a shell state where terrorism can be organized and funded.
