STRESZCZENIE
The article discusses main evolutionary trends in terrorism after 9/11. Analysing the phenomenon globally and with reference to the concept of so called “new terrorism”, the articles points out the continuation of majority of trends in terrorism’ evolution from the past, particularly on motivational and organizational level. The study stresses, however, significant quantitative growth in terrorist acts and changes in their geographical distributions. In addition, the article analyses reasons why the risks of super- and cyberterrorism did not materialized fully in last decades.
