Talk:Terrorism and Political Violence

Name

Headbomb, I have just found something odd about the supposed former name of this journal. The supporting citation for its launch under the name Journal of Terrorism Research is the Editorial manifesto published in its first issue (of which I can only see the first page), but in the same issue and all succeeding issues the "Editorial board" page calls it by its current name. Library of Congress authority headings only gives it the one name. Worldcat only lists the University of St Andrews Journal of Terrorism Research (continued as Contemporary Voices). Also, searching Google Scholar with the term between 1989 to 2009 returns nothing but that Editorial manifesto. I wonder if the intention was to use that name, but they changed their minds and upon launch didn't update the manifesto? (Or alternatively, the manifesto may go on to explain a change of name, but I don't have a subscription and can't see the rest.) Laterthanyouthink (talk) 11:19, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

I have now added this additional info to the lead, and changed the redirect back to the journal most commonly known as Journal of Terrorism Research (now Contemporary Voices). Laterthanyouthink (talk) 08:59, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
