恐怖袭击可以被看作是最邪恶的问题。9/11之后，恐怖分子从所谓的“壮观”事件转向了针对个人和团体的相对低强度的袭击。所谓的本土“恐怖分子”的出现进一步加剧了这个问题的邪恶本质。本文认为英国的CONTEST和PREVENT战略是对恐怖主义威胁的政策反应，以及政策本身对个人激进化的影响。作者强调了总体战略的预防链的一些局限性，以及由于未能对问题的本质采取整体视角而强加给政府政策的约束。
Terrorist attacks can be seen as the ultimate wicked problem. After 9/11, terrorists moved from so-called spectacular' events to relatively low-intensity attacks against individuals and groups. The emergence of what has become known as the home-grown' terrorist has added a further dimension to the wicked' nature of the problem. This paper considers the UK's CONTEST and PREVENT strategies as a policy response to the threats from terrorism and the impact that the policies themselves can have on the radicalization of individuals. The author highlights some of the limitations of the PREVENT strand of the overall strategy and the constraints that are imposed on government policies by failing to take a holistic perspective on the nature of the problem.
