Terrorism As An International Crime: Questions Of Responsibility And Complicity, Sompong Sucharitkul Dec 1988

Terrorism As An International Crime: Questions Of Responsibility And Complicity, Sompong Sucharitkul

Publications

Terrorism is a phenomenon in the contemporary world which occupies the attention of the international community. Terrorism as an international crime is readily more comprehensible and susceptible of clearer definition than sheer acts of terrorism by whomsoever performed. This paper is confined to questions of responsibility and complicity in connection with terrorism as an international crime, whatever the definition is ultimately adopted of "terrorism," and whatever the meaning to be ascribed to an "international crime."

Articles & Book Chapters

In the context of increasing terrorist attacks and a unified, internal approach to addressing the problem, this article will consider the following issues: first, should the eradication of the so-called "root causes" of terrorism take precedence over conventions to suppress or punish terrorists; second, the gaps that have been found in the existing multilateral convention approach to international terrorism, and third, the steps that have been taken recently by the concerned specialized agencies of the United Nations to remedy the situation.
