Answer:

The 21st century saw the dawn of the war on terrorism, as the 9/11 attacks and the Boston Marathon bombing dramatically changed society. Economic issues also moved to the forefront during the Great Recession as awareness of social inequality grew.

Answer:

Terrorism is using violence or the threat of violence against civilians for political goals. It has been used in the 21st century against a number of countries. Some examples of terrorism are the 9/11 attacks in America, and an attack in Paris as well, and that's just a few of the attacks. There has been a 61% increase in terrorist attacks in the past year.
