Terrorism and New Socio-Political Movements Ebrahim Motaghi* Associate Professor, Department of Political Science, Faculty of Law and Political Science, University of Tehran Samad Zahiri PhD Student in Political Science, University of Tehran Fatemeh Jalaian MA Student in Regional Studies, University of Tehran (Received: 8/3/87 - Approved: 18/9/87) Abstract: In this research, by referring to statistical data on the expansion of the phenomenon of terrorism in the world, we analyze the phenomenon of terrorism based on socio-political movements and conclude the discussion by examining and explaining the mechanism of group terrorism performance through the explanatory possibilities of collective action theory (centered on the rationality and selectivity of human strategic action and behavior). " The importance of the terrorism phenomenon and the necessity of research to understand its nature today lies in the fact that this phenomenon is the most serious form of socio-political transformations in the current world, which determines the fate of countries; this phenomenon has today replaced all past political-social transformations such as wars, revolutions, etc. For example, new political sociology theory says that individual and group actions within new social movements are "symbolic ". Because the basis of parametric and strategic rationality is based on the individual, and human action does not occur in a vacuum; rather, on one hand, it occurs within social, economic, political, and psychological structures that are the context of structural rationality, and on the other hand, it is influenced by cultural residues (values, religions, myths, ideologies, etc. Sprinzak states that individuals who embark on the path of terrorism manifest significant political and personal transformations during the process and after joining the terrorist group.
