Write аn essаy, аbоut 3-4 paragraphs lоng, based оn one (1) of the following topics: In what ways is tyrannicide similar to terrorism, and in what ways are tyrannicide and terrorism dissimilar (consider the acts involved, their justifications, and their intended effects)? Why was tyrannicide largely eclipsed by “terrorism” in the nineteenth century? In what ways did 19th and 20th century “terrorists” (especially in Europe and North America) continue to draw on the legacy of tyrannicide, in terms of justifications, acts, and targets? Give specific examples. Is Martin Miller’s notion of terrorism as a “great game,” a theory he developed on the basis of research on terrorism in nineteenth-century France and Russia, a useful tool of analysis when it comes to understanding the origins and motives of the 9/11 attacks? Or is it preferable to use the concept of “religious terror” developed by Mark Juergensmeyer (and others)? Explain your reasoning. In answering these questions, your essay should address the key elements of Miller’s theory, the key elements of Juergensmeyer’s theory, the history of Islamist terrorism since the mid-20th century, and the specifics of the 9/11 attacks (perpetrators, motives, and targets).

Write three (3) shоrt essаys, аbоut 2 оr 3 pаragraphs each, choosing at least one (1) topic from each of the two groups: GROUP I What were the causes of the French Revolutionary Terror? How was the Terror justified by Robespierre in “Principles of Political Morality”? In what ways did his justification draw on the thought of Rousseau? Who were the chief perpetrators and the chief victims of the Terror? What is the significance of the French revolutionary “Terror” for the origins of modern terrorism? In an interrogation immediately after his arrest, Carl Sand was asked why he had assassinated August von Kotzebue. Sand, who could not speak due to his self-inflicted wounds, took a piece of paper and wrote out a series of accusations against Kotzebue. What do these accusations say about the student movement to which Sand belonged? Why was Sand viewed sympathetically (and Kotzebue negatively) by wide sectors of the German public? Tsarist Russia is often cited as the birthplace of modern terrorism due to the sheer frequency of terrorist acts in that land. What factors led to terrorism becoming such a pervasive tactic in nineteenth-century Russia? What were the ideologies, tactics, and goals of its major perpetrators? To what extend did the Russian secret police contribute to the spread of terrorist violence?     GROUP II What specific factors led the FLN to adopt terrorism against French civilians during the Battle of Algiers? What was the effect of that violence on French civilians and what response did it evoke in the French military? Compare your account of the origin and impact of terrorism in Algiers with Frantz Fanon's account of the necessity and value of violence in The Wretched of the Earth: to what degree do they square with each other? How did John Brown come to embrace violence as a legitimate tactic in the campaign against slavery in the United States? How and under what influence did his strategies for an armed uprising evolve over time? What was the specific goal of the raid on Harpers Ferry and what was its impact? Why does Carola Dietze see Brown’s raid on Harpers Ferry as a key moment in the transatlantic “invention of terrorism? In a 1977 statement, the former German chancellor Willy Brandt admonished those Germans who expressed sympathy for the Red Army Faction. What explains the sympathy for the R.A.F. among a significant segment of the German public during the 1970s? In your answer you should consider the political situation of Germany in the 1960s and 1970s (including the rise of the New Left), the legacy of Nazism, international developments outside of Germany, the ideology of the R.A.F. (especially as expressed in the writings of Ulrike Meinhof), and the R.A.F.'s targets.
