'Its rare that the work of undergraduate students is brought to bear on contemporary issues in a way to help academics and policymakers. The Prosecution Project itself a valuable resource for data on sociopolitical violence has achieved this goal. With this book, Loadenthal and his undergraduate colleagues have pulled together a collection of excellent chapters featuring qualitative and quantitative analyses that are designed to help us not only understand ideological violence, but to effectively confront it as well.'-- Kurt Braddock, Professor, Homeland Security Studies program, Penn State University, USA
'Creative, thought-provoking and forward-leaning, Loadenthal's collection of essays highlights the extraordinary potential of younger scholars for future legal and policy reform. These contributions into the study of political violence and the prosecutions that follow highlight the strengths and weaknesses of a system in need of new answers. A unique and eye-opening collection.'-- Karen Greenberg, Director, Center on National Security, Fordham School of Law, USA
'The contemporary global upsurge in political violence requires a skilled courtroom response from prosecutors. Strategies that are data driven are essential in effectively addressing violent actions, and Prosecuting Political Violence is a timely and welcome tool for Americas strained justice system. Its innovative premise offers the integrity and creativity we need in this tumultuous moment.'-- Heidi Boghosian, Attorney and National Lawyers Guild former executive director
'How we define and distinguish terrorism from other forms of violence has long been a subject of intense debate among scholars. Prosecuting Political Violence contains an impressively rigorous and systematic discussion of this issue. It is impressive for its insights, innovative approaches, and thoroughness. The fact it represents the work of a new generation of terrorism scholars makes it a particularly novel and noteworthy contribution to the literature.'-- Bruce Hoffman, Georgetown Univeristy, USA 'Its rare that the work of undergraduate students is brought to bear on contemporary issues in a way to help academics and policymakers.
