Details

Countering the threat of terrorism is a global concern. This Concise Encyclopedia provides a comprehensive and authoritative assessment of contemporary terrorism law. Bringing together contributions from leading experts, entries illustrate how governments, international organisations, and the private sector can respond to rapidly evolving issues in the field.

Contributors explore a range of issues, including definitions of terrorism, human rights constraints, accountability mechanisms, and emerging threats. The Encyclopedia covers the full landscape of counter-terrorism measures, spanning criminal justice responses, investigatory powers, and prevention strategies. Forward-looking in approach, the text also investigates different theoretical approaches to counter-terrorism from a range of thematic perspectives and identifies key questions and challenges to inform future research.

Accessible and rigorous, the Elgar Concise Encyclopedia of Terrorism Law is an essential resource for scholars and students of human rights as well as public, criminal, and international law. Practitioners and policymakers in politics and security will also benefit from its valuable insights.
