ABSTRACT

This study analysed the research trends of counter-terrorism by synthesizing of academic articles between academia and state agencies through the semantic network analysis. We found some significant results from the analysis. To Sum up, first, “terror” and “terrorism” were used key subject matter between 1981 and 2014. Second, there were discussions about “law” and “institutions” before 2000, and there were activating academic research about “policies” after 2001. Third, while the research focused “reaction” in terms of the response from terror before 2000, the research papers focused “preparedness” in terms of the prevention from terror after 2001. Forth, looking at the differences by the year, “the Olympics” and “Seoul Asian Games” were frequently addressed between 1981 and 1990 regarding of the Seoul Olympic games in 1988 and the Seoul Asian games in 1986. The research related to “World Cup” were increased between 1991 and 2000 for preparing 2002 World cup games. After that, research about “9.11 terror” were radically increased between 2001 and 2010, and the research topics were varied, such as “cyber terror”, “homegrown terrorism”, between 2011 and 2014. Fifth, regarding of policy toward North Korea, research related to the risk of state sponsor terrorism by North Sixth, Korea were main topics before 2000, and after that, these research topics were decreased. regarding of police intervention to counter-terrorism, the research related to the police’s role toward counter-terrorism were relative small. However, these research about the police’s role for counter-terrorism were consistently increased.
