Talking to the Enemy (Encore)
March 31, 2011 Thursday AT 3PM CT

 
 

Anthropologist Scott Atran spent years talking to terrorists. In his new book he argues that terrorists don't die for a cause, but for each other. We'll explore the social lives of terrorists, and how things are changing in Afghanistan with a new generation of fighters. Rebroadcast from November 22, 2010.

  • Scott Atran, anthropologist at the National Center for Scientific Research in Paris, France, the University of Michigan and John Jay College; author of Talking to the Enemy: Faith, Brotherhood and the (Un)making of Terrorists.
