Justine Rosenthal

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 categorised terrorist groups into four categories: ethnic, ideological, financial and religious.[1]
