Abstract:

The vast majority of analyses of terrorism within the academic and policy communities concern counter-terrorism and the objectives and tactics of terrorist groups. Far less attention has been paid to the question of the impact of terrorist attacks on targeted societies. In an effort to fill this gap, therefore, this paper examines the domestic effects of terrorism using Israel as a case study. Specifically, this paper investigates the impact of Palestinian suicide terrorism on Israeli society during the second Intifada. Suicide terror attacks within Israel perpetrated by Palestinian militants skyrocketed following the outbreak of the second Intifada in September 2000. In order to answer the question of what impact this wave of suicide terrorism had upon Israeli society, this paper draws upon work conducted by researchers in a number of different disciplines (psychology, sociology, economics, and political science). By using Israel as a case study, and employing a multidisciplinary approach, the paper attempts to derive broader insights about the wide-ranging domestic effects of terrorism. While the number and frequency of suicide terror attacks in Israel during the second Intifada is unparalleled, the use of suicide attacks by terrorist groups is on the rise worldwide. It is certainly timely therefore to investigate the domestic effects of suicide terror attacks.

In particular future research should be devoted to attempting to answer the question of whether societies can become habituated to terrorism such that it has diminishing effects over time. Do repeated deadly terror attacks create more public fear and insecurity or do they have a progressively weaker affect on the population? The
