N2  - This paper initially identifies a number of critical distinctions that might help our understanding of the relationship between Internet use and terrorism. It then develops the notion of complex global microstructures as a useful conceptual aid to understanding how people interact with the Internet in general, and to terrorism in particular. Parallels are identified between various inappropriate, risky and dangerous uses of the Internet which are argued to point to a degree of commonality of effect. The paper concludes by suggesting that some forms of user interaction with the Internet suggest the Internet may have criminogenic qualities.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
