Terrorism Pre-survey
Questionnaire
Please take a few moments to answer this
brief pre-survey questionnaire.
The purpose of this pre-survey is to help
create a survey instrument
free of western ethnocentrism
and particularly white, male ethnocentrism.
Terrorists want something.
The goal of my research is to discover the
extent to which they speak for the societies
that they claim to represent.
I want to understand how much popular
support there is for terrorism,
what fuels popular support for terrorism,
and how the United States and the
developed West can respond more
diplomatically to alleviate the social
concerns that drive
popular support for terrorism.
My goal is that one day the societies
plagued with the violence of terrorism
can be free of both terrorism and the
perceived social injustices that may be
creating popular support for terrorism.
All information obtained in this study will
be held completely confidential and used
solely for the purpose of
creating a less biased survey instrument.
Individual responses will be promptly
destroyed once the data is compiled.
Why is This Survey Important?
My research investigates potential reasons
for popular support of terrorism.
Specifically, I’m interested in the correlation
between American foreign policy and
terrorism.
To what extent does American
unilateralism, preemption, and hegemony
fuel popular support for terrorism?
This is an important inquiry as it directly
relates to my hypothesis that terrorism,
regardless of its causes, is ultimately
possible only with sufficient popular support.
Consequently, only once a way to eliminate
popular support for terrorism is discovered
will society be able to eliminate terrorism
itself.
My major obstacle at this point is to devise
a survey instrument that is nonbiased, non-
ethnocentric, and asks the right questions.
To do this, I’ve put together this pre-survey
questionnaire
With a new administration in office, there is
no better time to advocate for the
necessary foreign policy changes America
needs to make. But in order to do that, we
need information.
