White Terror
In general, the term White Terror refers to acts of violence carried out by reactionary (usually monarchist or conservative) groups as part of a counter-revolution. Often, such acts were carried out in response to (and/or followed by) similar measures taken by the revolutionary side in the conflict. In particular, during the 20th century, the term White Terror was mostly applied to acts of violence against real or suspected socialists and communists.
