Sažetak

Terrorism is one from the overall spectrum of global security threats. In this multiply connected modern world, terrorism has become one of the forms of struggle against the new colonizers, i.e. the negative consequences of globalization processes. The paper argues that it is wrong to consider only western democratic and developed countries as vulnerable to terrorist attacks, it is developing countries where terrorist attacks actually leave the long-term consequences. To eradicate terrorism means to remove its causes, the importance of which is discussed in this paper with an emphasis on the basic human rights of every individual. Terrorism is a result of political and social crisis, as well as an expression of dissatisfaction with the political, social, economic, religious and other trends. As a global phenomenon, it can be considered as one of side effects of globalization, the other side of the coin of globalization processes, in other words, a negative consequence of the spread of economic and political achievements of the developed West. Therefore, this phenomenon is both a global security threat, and a form of the antiglobalization action. The paper’s main goal is to explain, on a theoretical level, the modern concept of terrorism and its causes with a critical view of globalization processes.
