Aviation Terrorism Historical Survey, Perspectives, and Responses
Description
Acts of violence against civilian aircraft, passengers and airline facilities have been exploited by terrorists since at least 1931. This form of international terrorism is more than an attack on the rights of the innocent and the rule of law. It constitutes a great threat to global peace. As escalating threats to civil aviation have caused great concern to the entire international community, governments and the civil aviation industry have introduced security measures.
