Terrorism and international relations

This video traces the complex and controversial history of terrorism, from its origins during the French Revolution to its global evolution through anarchist movements, anti-colonial struggles, fascist regimes, religious extremism, and nationalist insurgencies. Featuring figures like Vera Zasulich, the IRA, al-Qaeda, and the Ku Klux Klan, it explores how terrorism has been used as both a tool of oppression and a weapon of resistance.

Discover how the meaning of terrorism has shifted across time and context—and why defining it remains so politically charged today.
