Their conception of 'terror' as a method of revolutionary action actually derived from a tradition that went back to the Russian revolutionaries' struggle against Czarist tyranny," the statement by the historians said.

"Now, however, in the last two or three decades, terror has come to mean almost all over the world the killing of innocent men, women and children. And it has thus assumed a heavily pejorative sense, not necessarily borne by it in the 1920s and 1930s," it added.
