Reviews

'Drawing on a wealth of original research material, Public Opinion and Counter Terrorism offers a path-breaking interrogation of the complex and multiple connections between counter-terrorism policy and public opinion. Theoretically sophisticated and analytically nuanced, Michael Lister demonstrates a mastery of frequently disconnected academic fields, and an enviable capacity to bring these into conversation with each-other and his findings. The book will be essential reading for scholars of security, public opinion, British politics, and beyond. Deservedly so.' Lee Jarvis, University of East Anglia, UK A rare and exciting empirical insight to the ‘black box’ of policy-making, this book’s provocative analysis will invigorate security studies by surfacing the connect/disconnect between public opinion and elite security decision-making. Vital reading.' Timothy Legrand, University of Adelaide, Australia
