Terrorism and International Relations: The Way Forward

This study examines the impact of Terrorism on International Relations, its effects and possible solutions. It further investigates the complex motivations behind terrorism, the duty of global relations in molding anti-terrorism tactics, and the effectiveness of international plans in minimizing terrorism’s effect on peace and security. The study relied on data from the Global Terrorism Database (GTD), World Values Survey (WVS), and World Bank Governance Indicators. The study concluded that there is a possibility of more effective global responses and management of terrorism within the international sphere by prioritizing governance reforms, integrating economic development with counterterrorism strategies, expanding beyond military interventions, and strengthening intelligence-sharing.
