Louise Richardson, executive dean of the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study and an expert on international terrorism, opened Radcliffes 2004 Voices of Public Intellectuals series on Confronting Terrorism: Democracys Response to the Terrorist Threat Thursday (Feb. 26). In her lecture, The Nature of the Terrorist Threat, she put terrorism in context, providing historical, psychological, religious, and international lessons from which the United States might learn.https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/wp-content/uploads/2004/03/07-lrichardson1-225-4.jpg
