Fear and terror have come to drive world politics, and the people who do the driving have shaped and used them to carry out their policies. As the world's political economy devolves into chaos, Globalization of American Fear Culture posits that violence and fear have become the new statecraft.

Geoffrey R. Skoll is Associate Professor Emeritus of Criminal Justice at Buffalo State College, USA.
