Definitions:

There is no one “universally accepted definition of lone wolf terrorism.” 1 Here are a few representative
ones.

Bakker and de Roy van Zuijdewijn – the outcome from a workshop -- “The threat or use of violence by
a single perpetrator (or small cell), not acting out of personal material reasons, with the aim of
influencing a wider audience, and who acts without any direct support in the planning, preparation and
execution of the attack, and whose decision to act is not directed by any group or other individuals
(although possibly inspired by others).” 2

Dr. Mark Hamm – “someone who acts alone, without the help or encouragement of a government or a
terrorist organization, who acts without the direction or leadership of a hierarchy, someone who
designs the plan and the methods by themselves without any sort of outside support, and who acts
totally alone without the support of any second individual or third individual.” 3

Joel Capellan – “…[various] authors have identified a continuum of lone wolves base on offenders’
levels of connection to, direction, and support from formal terrorist organizations or networks. On one
end of the spectrum, you have isolated lone wolves. These individuals have no formal affiliation, nor
have they received any type of support, material or otherwise, from extremist organizations or
networks. They radicalized, planned, and executed their attacks alone. On the other end, you have
connected lone wolves. While they also operate alone, connected lone wolves belong to formal
terrorism organizations or networks. Consequently, they are under the direct influence of a leader who
provides instruction and support during the planning stage.” 4

Raffaello Pantucci’s Typology Categories 5:

• Loner -- acts alone, no connection with any extremist group


• Lone Wolf -- appear to act alone but have some level of contact with extremists
• Lone Wolf Pack -- group of individuals who are self-radicalized
• Lone Attacker -- individual who acts alone but has clear command and control links with an
extremist group
