ABSTRACT
Because of the terrorist attacks occurred in Norway on July 22, 2011, this article reviews some critical points of the phenomenon of terrorism. They have risen from social and clinical psychology. From the two disciplines of psychology they have been identified as socio-structural, psychosocial and individual, risk factors. However, in cases such as of Norway, there is a clear demand to the understanding and explanation of violent actions viewed from diverse areas (macro and individual levels) but at the same time complementary to psychology. That can contribute to prevent and/or detect potential attacks to destabilize or manipulate social behavior by using extreme and violent acts that infringe fundamental human rights.
RESUMEN
A raíz de los atentados terroristas ocurridos en Noruega el 22 de julio de 2011, el presente artículo hace una revisión de aproximaciones que sobre el fenómeno del terrorismo han sido planteadas desde la psicología social y la psicología clínica. Desde las dos disciplinas de la psicología se identifican algunos factores de riesgo de tipo psicosocial e individual. Sin embargo en casos como el de Noruega, hay una clara demanda a la comprensión y explicación de las acciones violentas, desde áreas diversas (en niveles macrosociales e individuales) complementarias de la psicología, que puedan contribuir a la prevención y/o detección de potenciales atentados que desestabilicen o pretendan manipular comportamientos sociales utilizando medios violentos, extremistas, que lesionan los derechos humanos fundamentales.
