The branding of armed groups as 'terrorists' post 9\/11 created a policy straitjacket for governments making it is more difficult to initiate negotiations with a listed group. This book develops the notion of the 'linguistic ceasefire' to explore how governments that claim they will never negotiate with terrorists end-up doing just that.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47920517120158,"sku":"ING-9781526157591","price":183.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781526157591.jpg?v=1782822747","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781526157591","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
