Abstract

ABSTRACT
According to the traditional International Relations approach, the perpetrators of terrorist actions are classified as violent non-state actors. Nation states, however, may be politically favored by providing support to terrorist groups, characterizing state sponsorship of terrorism. This article aims to deepen the study of the relationship between States and terrorist organizations. To this end, a literature review is carried out on the concept of terrorism and state sponsorship of terrorism, followed by a case study on the relationship between the Soviet republics and terrorist organizations throughout the Cold War. Finally, explanatory hypotheses are raised about the motivation of States to cooperate with terrorist organizations. It is concluded that States eventually collaborate with terrorist organizations, directly or indirectly, with current examples being presented as support for the conclusion.

Keywords: terrorism; terrorist organizations; state sponsorship of terrorism; Cold War.
