N2  - The paper focuses on a long-term research project and fndings of R. A. Pape who deals with root causes of suicide terrorism. Pape has elaborated the largest suicide terrorist attacks database (1980-2010) and a theory of suicide terrorism based on it. His approach consists of three levels of analysis: organizational (strategic), social (community), and individual logic. Te terrorism pattern consists of a rational strategy, that is part of an asymetric con?ict with an occupying power which is a democratic state, that is not willing to negotiate. Finally, there must be a religious di?erence between the two adversaries. Te article also discusses the main criticism of the theory. © 2017 Te Author.<p /> <p>Language: cs</p>
