The New Orleans News Year’s Day attack on Bourbon Street is an example of “rampage terrorism.” The Schar School’s Zak Kallenborn has policy recommendations to prevent and recover from future events.

His new study shows that terrorists possibly could bring an end to all of humanity. Just another day’s work for policy fellow Zak Kallenborn.

Helon Habila, a professor of creative writing, and an acclaimed international author, has never shied away from important issues. The author of four novels and a factual account of the 2014 kidnapping in Nigeria of 276 young girls by the terrorist group Boko Haram, Habila says he strives to describe history through the eyes of ordinary people.

When a Philippian terrorism researcher won a Fulbright scholarship, there was only one place she wanted to work: the Schar School of Policy and Government’s Terrorism, Transnational Crime and Corruption Center.

A panel of law enforcement experts will examine the rise of domestic terrorism Thursday, March 25.

When Haider Semaisim works on the federally mandated database of global incidents of terrorism with George Mason Ģ��AV’s Schar School of Policy and Government, he does so with pride. It is not only an educational and professional endeavor, he said. “It’s personal.”

To defend against terrorism, you have to understand it. Thanks to more than a dozen students, alumni and faculty at George Mason Ģ��AV working on a digital terrorism database, everyone from policy makers to researchers around the world will be a step closer to that goal.
