Definition(s)

  • The war on terrorism is the term used to describe the American-led global counterterrorism campaign launched in response to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. In its scope, expenditure, and impact on international relations, the war on terrorism is comparable to the Cold War; it represents the beginning of a new phase in global political relations and has important consequences for security, human rights, international law, cooperation, and governance.
