Criminological Description Of Crimes Related To Terrorism And Their Causes, Jamshid Ibrohimov
Criminological Description Of Crimes Related To Terrorism And Their Causes, Jamshid Ibrohimov
Review of law sciences
Terrorism is the most dangerous and difficult vocation of our time. In order to solve this social problem, it is necessary first of all to know exactly what terrorism is, its plot, essence, why and by whom it is used as a tool in the fight against terrorism. It is worth noting that now the fact that the identity of the terrorist was not described as a Fox, is one of the main problems in science. In this case, it is also very important to pay attention to the various data on the delivery of mercenaries maksad in the case …

The Threat Of Terrorism To Power Grids: Effects Of Electromagnetic Pulses To The United States, Justin Van Dunk
Liberty University Journal of Statesmanship & Public Policy
Terrorism’s roots can be traced back to the French Revolution.[1] Since 1789 terrorism has adopted many faces and its reach stretches throughout the world. Amidst the difficulty of defining terrorism, the FBI has given us the following definition, “…the unlawful use of…violence against persons…to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.” (Gaines & Miller, 2013, p. 539).[2] Bombing, hijacking, arson, assault, kidnapping, and hostage-taking are just a few of the attack tactics utilized throughout terrorist organization. However, with continuing advancements in technology nations need to consider …
The Changing Face Of Terrorism And The Designation Of Foreign Terrorist Organizations, Patrick J. Keenan
The Changing Face Of Terrorism And The Designation Of Foreign Terrorist Organizations, Patrick J. Keenan
Indiana Law Journal
In this Article, I take up one slice of what should be a broad re-examination of
U.S. law and policy. I argue that the new attacks have been undertaken by entities
that can and should be designated as foreign terrorist organizations. Doing this would
permit prosecutors to target those who support these entities with tools that are not
currently available. This Article is both a doctrinal argument that directly addresses
the many legal hurdles that make designating groups, such as foreign hackers and
troll farms, terrorist organizations a complicated endeavor, and a policy argument
about how U.S. law and policy …
Beyond Human Shielding: Civilian Risk Exploitation And Indirect Civilian Targeting, Geoffrey S. Corn
Beyond Human Shielding: Civilian Risk Exploitation And Indirect Civilian Targeting, Geoffrey S. Corn
International Law Studies
Few violations of the law of armed conflict (LOAC) are as pernicious as using civilians to shield military objectives from attack. This unlawful tactic unfortunately seems to be an all too common practice of organized armed groups, especially in conflicts against tactically superior conventional state armed forces. The very term "human shielding" presupposes, however, the ultimate objective is to prevent an opponent from attacking the shielded military objective or, in the alternative, substantially complicate that attack decision. But is a shielding effect always the ultimate objective of such civilian exploitation? This article argues that the answer is no; that there …

Thoughts, Crimes, And Thought Crimes, Gabriel S. Mendlow
Thoughts, Crimes, And Thought Crimes, Gabriel S. Mendlow
Michigan Law Review
Thought crimes are the stuff of dystopian fiction, not contemporary law. Or so we’re told. Yet our criminal legal system may in a sense punish thought regularly, even as our existing criminal theory lacks the resources to recognize this state of affairs for what it is—or to explain what might be wrong with it. The beginning of wisdom lies in the seeming rhetorical excesses of those who complain that certain terrorism and hate crime laws punish offenders for their malevolent intentions while purporting to punish them for their conduct. Behind this too-easily-written-off complaint is a half-buried precept of criminal jurisprudence, …
