Seminar paper from the year 2023 in the subject Politics - Topic: Peace and Conflict, Security, grade: 2,0, University of Bamberg, language: English, abstract: This term research paper will take a step back and take a closer look at an organization known as the ¿Weather Underground¿, which was involved in a number of bombings and other domestic attacks during the end of the 1960s and the 1970s. Beginning with an introduction and an overview of the ¿Weather Underground Organization¿ (WOU) that will focus on its origins, formation, actions and dissolution, this paper will analyze the WUO by using a model that contextualizes radicalization as a process and is known as the ¿Staircase to Terrorism¿. The six floors, of which the model consists of, will further be individually substantiated by passages of the ¿Weathermen Statement¿8, the first publication of the Weather Underground, and exemplary actions that the organization planned from 1969 until its dissolution in 1977. The conclusion and the concluding statement at the end of the paper will reason for the suitability of the ¿Staircase to Terrorism¿ as well as its limitations and will further point out potential approaches for continuing research.
