The purpose of this paper on women as terrorists is threefold. The first aim is to examine a portion of the existing literature in order to identify explicit and implicit propositions and hypotheses about the causal dynamics involved in female terrorism.

Finally, the policy implications of the various approaches to explaining female involvement in terrorist activities are examined.
