The relationship between the terms terrorism and global network is that terrorists and terrorism can come from anywhere in the globe. Terrorists work together in a global network to plan their attacks on their enemies.
Prevention
Terrorism as a political tool is a form of extortion. The idea is, if you don't do what the terrorist wants you to do (whatever that may be) then the terrorist will punish you by committing acts of terrorism. This strategy may or may not be effective, in different circumstances.
Repression
One strategy would be to attack nations that support terrorism with nukes. Another strategy would be to resolve the various international disputes which motivate people to commit acts of terrorism. Of course, it is still necessary, in either case, to track down terrorists and capture or kill them, and to be vigilant against future attacks. We must be on guard.
Terrorism
If you give terrorists what they want, you will prove that terrorism is a successful strategy and you will encourage others to also use terrorism to get what they want. The more that terrorism is rewarded, the more terrorism we will get. Much the same principle applies in dealing with kidnappers. You can pay them off to get them to release their victims, but that will just encourage them to keep kidnapping more people and collecting more ransoms indefinitely.
