Justine Ari Rosenthal is Director of the Council on Global Terrorism.

Education

Rosenthal received her B.A. from the University of Chicago and her M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in Political Science from Columbia University, where she was awarded Einstein and Presidential Fellowships. Her dissertation at Columbia was titled 'Razing the terrorism monolith: Group typologies and state strategies'. In it she pointed out that, "Terrorist groups are not all the same...[and] viewing terrorism as a monolithic entity, rather than as a tactic used by various sub-state actors against the state for different purposes, nation-states make incorrect policy choices that often exacerbate the terrorism problem." She categoried terrorist groups into four categories: ethnic, ideological, financial and religious.[1]

Career

Previous positions include Research Fellow in Foreign Policy Studies at the Brookings Institution where she worked on terrorism issues; Director of the Executive Office at the Council on Foreign Relations where she managed the president's office and related task forces on prominent international policy; Fellow in the U.S. government where she worked on intelligence analysis; and Special Assistant to former Secretary Robert E. Rubin. As a Luce Scholar and Lecturer, she also spent considerable time in China teaching courses on international relations theory and post-Cold War security issues to students at the College of Foreign Affairs in Beijing.[2]
