Zusammenfassung:This article investigates two ways in which state involvement in religion-minority and majority restriction-generates terrorism. Using a time-series, cross-national negative binomial analysis of 174 countries from 1991-2009, this study finds that when religiously devout people find themselves marginalized through either form of religious restriction, they are more likely to pursue their aims through violence. The article concludes with recommendations for policymakers.
