Terrorism in the history of humanity
Terrorism is one of the forms of the social conflict manifestation. It appeared when the certain preconditions formed in the society. Terrorism played an important role in the social and political development of humanity as the reaction to the oppositions of poor and rich, the dominant powers and the minority.
The collapse of traditional colonised empires, the foundation of the system of national countries, the consolidation of minorities, the formation of effective social government, the formation of democratic mechanisms of social transformation decreased the desire of people to fight with the use of the terrorist methods. And the further development of people's consciousness make the turn to the terrorist values impossible because of the moral points of view. This is the evolution of the society and the decrease of terrorism threat in European countries.
The situation is another in some countries of Southern America, Africa and Asia. These are the countries where the terrorism wasn't killed historically. And the violence is the usual thing in these countries. But terrorism is also the preoccupation of countries of the whole world as it touches the countries of all continents, but the centres of terrorism are based in countries of Africa, Asia and Southern America.
Terrorism developed a lot changing its forms and methods of fight. First it really influenced the world politics and the world economics. But at first terrorism was based on religious views.
