Special Issue: Social Psychological Perspectives on Terrorism: Processes, Causes and Consequences

Guest Editors:

Jean-François Verlhiac (University Paris 10)

International Review of Social Psychology seeks submissions for a special issue on Terrorism.

IRSP special issue will be one of the first, if not the first, attempt to gather social psychological views on terrorism in a European journal. Even if terrorism is a very important question of our time, not very much articles focus on the specificity of European field, for example the link with Muslim immigration and identity, or the consequences of the last terrorist acts (outside the clinical field, e.g., PTSD). We stay of course open to any other studies that cover possible causes for terrorism, for joining terrorist movement, as well as potential consequences on people perceptions, judgments and behaviors. Interesting starting points or topics could be:

1. Sympathy for terrorist group and attraction for that area of ideas and attitudes
2. Judgment and stigmatization of groups perceived as linked to terrorism
3. Cognitive, behavioral and emotional lay responses to the perception of terrorist act
4. Societal and political consequences

We seek a set of empirical papers, original data and contributions, report new findings, meta-analyses, or possibly theoretical pieces that go beyond merely summarizing a research area and that describe new conceptualizations or link existing research findings and theorizing to specific context and policy.

Submissions should be made electronically to Thomas Arciszewski ( thomas.arciszewski@univ-provence.fr) and to Jean-François Verlhiac ( jean-francois.verlhiac@u-paris10.fr). Papers should be in English and about 6000-7000 words including the abstract, references, tables and acknowledgments. In the submission letter, indicate that the MS is submitted for consideration for publication in the Special Issue on Terrorism. Please direct inquiries to the guest editor …

The deadline for submissions is February 15th 2009
