Uses a key contemporary challenge of terrorism-the emerging radicalization via social media platforms-as a thread to link its chapters, especially in terms of domestic terror threats and the rise of the far right in the US and abroad.
Discusses the evolving "fifth wave" of modern terrorism, linking and radicalizing groups and individuals in all parts of the globe, recruiting individuals for terrorist acts in their own states and drawing them into international confrontations.
