Jorge Lasmar: Brazilian Counter-Terrorism - a podcast by John F. Morrison

In this week's episode John speaks to Prof. Jorge Lasmar of PUC Minas Brazil. In their chat they discuss a range of issues including counter-terrorism in Brazil, the global war on terror, and the influence which a G.K. Chesterton novel had on his career.

Due to technical issues during the first recording this episode includes part which was recorded in person, and another part over Skype. Therefore there is a change in sound quality about half way through. However, we are sure that this won't detract from a really interesting chat.

In this episode Jorge discusses the following texts which influenced him:
Walter Reich (1990). Origins of terrorism: Psychologies, ideologies, theologies, states of mind.

Gilbert Guillame (1976). Terrorisme international

Thomas Schelling (1981) The strategy of conflict

G. K. Chesterton (2010) The man who was Thursday

He also discussed the following pieces of his own research:

Managing great powers in the post-Cold War world: old rules new game? The case of the global war on terror. (2012)

The global war on terror, jus ad bellum, and normative change in international law. (2011)
