La cuestión de «si es eficaz el terrorismo» es de vital importancia tanto desde el punto de vista práctico como intelectual; no obstante, ha sido ampliamente eclipsada por otras consideraciones desarrolladas dentro de la literatura académica sobre el terrorismo. En este contexto, el presente artículo aborda algunas de las aportaciones recientes al debate emergente relacionado con dicha cuestión; destaca varias de las problemáticas inherentes a la discusión académica con respecto a este tema surgidas hasta la fecha; y, por último, esboza un marco para que la investigación académica futura en esta área tenga un carácter más inclusivo, sistemático y fructífero en el plano dialógico que el que ha tenido hasta la fecha.
