Terrorism is a complicated and multidimensional phenomenon that reacts to social and technical shifts around the world. According to a recent analysis of writings on terrorism, this sector is characterized by a combination of expansion and solidification. Although the number of subfields and citations to terrorism studies decreased from 2012 to the present, indicating a contraction or consolidation in the disciplinary spread of terrorism research in more recent years, the field of terrorism research exhibits increasing interdisciplinarity and scientific collaboration.
