Since 11 September 2001, the issue of terrorism has again become the focus of virulent legal debate. At both the national and the international level, a wide range of new laws have been proposed and adopted, many of which impose limitations on the enjoyment of individual rights – both of terrorist suspects and the general public. This course will examine the scope of permissible and impermissible anti-terror operations via analysis and comparison of domestic and international legal principles and practice. We will focus in particular on the efforts of lawmakers and courts to strike a balance between the protection of public security and the preservation of civil liberties and a democracy-based rule of law. We will discuss inter alia the following topics: the roots and causes of terrorism; the question of a definition of terrorism, or the absence thereof; civil and military detention of terrorist suspects; due process v. national security; the scope of counterintelligence operations, in particular those of an extra-territorial character; and refugee and immigration law in the era of terrorism. |
