Terroryzm a przestępczość zorganizowana – ujęcie teoretyczne
Terrorism and organised crime: theoretical approach

Summary/Abstract: Terrorism, despite the lack of a clear definition, it is an “unmistakable phenomenon”, and therefore easy to identify. The sources of terrorist actions can be found in ideologies and religions, as well as in various socio-economic, historical-political, sociological, and psychological factors. Terrorists are guided by various motivations and utilize different strategies to carry their acts but for all strategies fear manipulation is a common element. Over the years, the structure of terrorist groups has undergone radical changes, but the means and methods of their actions have not changed. The implementation of tasks set by terrorist groups requires money. This is the most important reason why terrorists cooperate with organized crime groups. This cooperation usually takes the form of partnership, immanent or subordination. It has contributed to the fact that terrorism and organized crime have become one of the biggest threats to the security of states and societies nowadays.
