Strategic Terror The Politics and Ethics of Aerial Bombardment By: Beau Grosscup Publisher: Zed Books, Limited Print ISBN: 9781842775431, 184277543X eText ISBN: 9781848137844, 1848137842 Edition: 1st Format: EPUB Available from $ 31.95 USD SKU: 9781848137844 Presenting a global history of aerial bombardment, this book shows how certain European powers initiated aerial bombardment of civilians after World War I, and how it was an instrument of choice in World War II. Beau Grosscup shows that such methods, used initially as a means of terrorizing native populations in Africa and the Middle East, have become the primary form of terrorism in more recent decades. While such 'strategic terror' is not classed as 'terrorism' in the West, this reflects an unwillingness to confront the human costs and immorality of aerial bombardment. Grosscup argues that if terrorism is to be diminished, the role of aerial bombing in sustaining global violence must be recognized.
