Terrorism is defined as the unlawful use of force or violence against people or property to coerce governments or populations for political or social goals. Terrorism has psychological, economic, and social effects such as injuries, deaths, depressions, damage to buildings and infrastructure, and negative impacts on tourism and trade. Future terrorist attacks are predicted to increasingly utilize technology and the internet through tactics like computer hacking and cyber terrorism. International organizations are working to counter terrorism through strategies focused on understanding terrorist methods, preventing and combating terrorism, building country counterterrorism capacities, and respecting human rights.
