In the 1970s, the concept of security was still strongly connected to territoriality and to a locally-based
perception of emergency. The national-international nexus, shaped by the bipolarity of the Cold War, inevitably
affected the perception of security in terms of what was recognized as existing inside and outside of the
national sovereignty sphere. Over this decade, the definition of political opponents, state borders, territory
and national sovereignty in Europe underwent a new attribution of meaning. Political armed violence made
its first appearance, for example, as Europe had known only street riots and sporadic social conflicts until
then. The international dimension taken on by armed political violence by the end of the 1960s challenged
governments and security apparatuses to rethink their theoretical and logistical approaches to terrorist
emergency on foreign soil.
