TY - JOUR PY - 1989// TI - Terrorism in Britain: threat, reality, response JO - Terrorism A1 - Sacopulos, Peter J. SP - 153 EP - 165 VL - 12 IS - 3 N2 - As international terrorism has intensified worldwide during the last two decades, Britain has become a primary target. Internationally, it is vulnerable because of its position as a leading member of the Western European Community; and domestically, it continues to be a target of the IRA's exportation of violence from Northern Ireland to England. In an effort to confront this rise in international and domestic terrorism, Britain has proven herself willing and able to respond. This response has incorporated antiterrorist legislation, strong administrative measures, and an outstanding special military unit.
