Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: For all the attention it evokes, international terrorism, in reasonable context, actually causes rather little damage, and the likelihood that any individual will become a victim in most places is microscopic. But few people, it seems, are aware of either fact. This paper examines 1) the process by which terrorism is measured, demonstrating its limited direct consequences; 2) the fears and the behavioral consequences it creates and nourishes, including economically evasive behavior, negative health effects, and apparent support for policies that often prove expensive and of dubious quality; and 3) the potential longterm persistence of these fears, suggesting that the internalized fears about terrorism may be around for decades
