Summary/Abstract: In contemporary political and security theories, when studying political propaganda and terrorism, most authors start from the principle that these are predominantly political phenomena, i.e. essential factors of politics and the political process, regarding either internal or the foreign policy front. In fact, we are daily bombarded by the concepts of political propaganda and terrorism, in certain contexts and meanings. On the one hand, there is the daily presence of these terms, but, on the other hand, in the existing scientific fund there is no general agreement in defining the political propaganda nor terrorism. Therefore, scientific research on political propaganda and terrorism requires both scientific definition and scientific explanation, formation of various classifications criteria, etc.
