Architecture Thesis, 2007-Dale Lunan: Virtual Terror Tribunals, Dale Lunan

School of Architecture - Theses

"Tribunals determining the identities of captured terror suspects are necessary. The Geneva Convention of 1949 demands that these tribunals occur as close as possible to the 'theater of operations'. In the War on Terror, the 'theater of operations' can exist anywhere. Therefore, the tribunals must have the capacity to exist anywhere."

This thesis focuses on the possibilities of virtual terror tribunals, as influenced by airplanes, technology, and expanding networks of modern communication.
