dc.description.abstractTerrorism is a global phenomenon and it has many implications on the security of the contemporary world. The impact of terrorism is more than the immediate consequences of an attack, it has ripple effect on all aspects of life such as economic, social, psychological, political and others. Economic factors such as poverty, political factors and social/psychological factors are major causes of terrorism. Governments in various nations are committing so much resources in order to combat the menace especially since the turn it has taken after 9/11 attacks on the United States. In explaining this study, Relative Deprivation and Grievance Theory, Social Identity Theory, Rationality and Rational Choice Theory are used. Secondary data were utilised to gather information for the study. The study found out that historical grievances and simmering resentments; anger and frustration among marginalized groups; digital age and social media are some of the drivers of terrorism. The study concluded that addressing terrorism requires a comprehensive and coordinated approach, demanding cooperation between governments, civil society organisations, and other stakeholders, with a focus on promoting peace, stability, and economic development in regions affected by terrorism. Effective and comprehensive countermeasures, creating and strengthening international cooperation, addressing the root causes of terrorism are some of the recommendations the study made.
