Trends in the Incidence of International Terror Attacks on Americans After the Cold War
Charles Knight and Melissa Murphy
June 2003
Abstract
This briefing memo addresses trends in the incidence of terror in the post-Cold War period by comparing the number of international terror attacks on American interests with the overall number of terror attacks worldwide. We present the data year by year and as three year moving averages. We use data from the U.S. Department of State which is frequently cited as authoritative and usefully summarizes annual statistics.
