Economic effects of anti-terrorism security measures
Security measures aiming to manage the risk of urban terrorism impose economic effects on society, the so-called economic effects of anti-terrorism measures. In essence, they can be classified as the costs of terrorism since they result from the actions of households, private agents and public agents in an attempt to prevent a terror event to occur, or at least to mitigate the effects of such an event.
Description
Estimation of the economic impact of counter-terrorism measures includes accounting for direct (primary) and indirect (secondary) effects, including both the costs and the benefits (see the clickable map below).
Just like security measures aimed at criminal events, measures specifically aimed against terrorism come with cost at the point of implementation and the benefits come later. Moreover, also the actual impact on terrorist behaviour should be taken into account in order to measure the effectiveness of the chosen security measures. For more information on economic effects of specific security measures, see:
