Sumario:The emergence of armed groups, the nature of the terrorist threat and the increasing number of weak or failed states that are incapable of controlling or enforcing the laws within their territories bring about new circumstances and dangers that cannot be explained by the old security paradigm. A paradigmatic shift is occurring in the global security scenario today. This new paradigm is witnessing changes which are attempting to shake-up the entire world order. There has been an almost complete disappearance of distinctions between foreign and domestic threats and the manner to confront these. This paper makes an endeavour to examine the state of the next chapter of global jihad, which is driving the threat calculations for 2015 and beyond. It examines the ongoing transformations in the current world order and its efficacy in the backdrop of the threat of a new paradigm of terrorism. The postscript concludes with a likely scenario emerging consequent to the changing paradigm of terrorism and its impact on future world.
