The Journal of Counterterrorism and Homeland Security International, also marketed under its short title COUNTER TERRORISM, is the flagship publication of the International Association for Counterterrorism and Security Professionals (IACSP).

According to IACSP’s website: "The Journal of Counterterrorism & Security International is the most credible source of terrorism information in print today. Quoted by major news sources including members of congress, C-SPAN, Radio, Television and Newspaper journalists The Journal is always on the cutting edge of analysis and reporting." [1]

It is published quarterly and has a reported circulation of 20,000. [2]

Although it describes itself as a journal, the publication would more accurately be called a magazine. The Writers guidelines state that the journal is not an academic journal: “the Journal of Counterterrorism & Homeland Security Int'l. is not a technical or scholarly journal, footnotes should be avoided when possible.” [3]
