Welcome to IOU Digital Library

A concise, analytical study of how contemporary terrorist groups use new media and digital communication platforms in the post‑9/11 era. Seib and Janbek examine the transition from “terrorism 1.0” to “terrorism 2.0,” where interactive technologies—such as forums, social networking, and multimedia sites—are leveraged for propaganda, recruitment, and virtual community building. Through content analysis of extremist websites and media output, the authors explore online strategies, the targeting of youth, the role of women in terrorist messaging, and the future implications of digital communication on extremist activity. The book also considers how counterterrorism efforts must adapt to these evolving media landscapes. It is aimed at students and scholars of terrorism studies, media and communication, security studies, and political science.
