“…Most empirical research in terrorism has focused on its temporal dimension (Hamilton and Hamilton, 1983;Porter and White, 2012;Brandt and Sandler, 2012;Barros, 2003;Suleman, 2012;Bilal et al, 2012;Sandler, 1993, 2005;Enders et al, 2011;Raghavan et al, 2013) or has considered purely spatial models only (Braithwaite and Li, 2007;Savitch and Ardashev, 2001;Brown et al, 2004). Moreover, studies that have explicitly combined both space and time dimensions have been carried out at country level, on larger geographical areas (LaFree et al, 2010(LaFree et al, , 2018Midlarsky et al, 1980;Neumayer and Plümper, 2010;Enders and Sandler, 2006;Gao et al, 2013) or at subnational level of analysis but within specific study areas Behlendorf et al, 2012;Nunn, 2007;Piegorsch et al, 2007;Öcal and Yildirim, 2010;Medina et al, 2011;Siebeneck et al, 2009;Mohler, 2013).…”
