dc.description.abstractAfter the 9/11 attacks, the United States embarked on a global war on terrorism, which was a campaign that was supposed to help in the fight against terrorist organizations worldwide and prevent further terrorist attacks from happening. The adoption of such a military strategy soon resulted in open wars, most notably in Afghanistan and Iraq. The so-called War on Terror launched by the US in the wake of 9/11 reverberated deeply and for a long time both on U.S. policy and political debate. This paper examines the implementation of the War on Terror practices and it assesses the consequences, such as the militarization of counterterrorism, by taking into account its long-lasting legacies and questioning whether or not it has been a successful approach.en_US
