Abstract
Terrorism has been of great concern in the modern world for over a century now. Several strategies have been developed and implemented in order to counter terrorist activities and undo the harm caused by terrorist organizations. These efforts require to have a clear understanding about different types of terrorism in order to increase their effectiveness. This review study contributes to the efforts in understanding different types of terrorist organizations through a “motivation-based model.” Three different types of terrorist organizations were identified through a systematic review of relevant literature and examples of terrorist organizations under these types are examined in this study. A discussion on improving our understanding of the typologies of terrorism concludes this review study.
