Abstract
This article deals with types and stereotypes of terrorists, in particular with 4th and 5th waves terrorists (i.e., collective and individual terrorism). We analyze vertical and horizontal terrorist organizations and address the points of consensus and controversy about this form of collective terrorism. We then deal with the controversial definition of individual terrorism: how to classify the individual terrorist. Finally, we analyze the stereotypes of collective and individual terrorists in North America and Europe
