Terrorism and War Crimes: Two Sides of The Same Coin?

The definition of terrorism is not consensual, even within the same country. Indeed, in the United States of America, a country where the fight against terrorism is one of the present political priorities, the definition varies depending on whether the source is the Department of Defense (DoD), the US Code, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) or the Department of State, but this lack of consensus does not mean that terrorism is not considered a crime according to the Resolution 49/6026 of 17 February 1995 of the United Nations General Assembly. However, many experts on the thematic do not accept the definition of terrorism as an international crime in time of peace defending that terrorism is essentially the violation of domestic laws which have their genesis in treaties to which states may or may not adhere, and this explains why some countries refuse to reduce their sovereignty and do not accept to transfer the jurisdiction for crimes of international terrorism to supranational institutions. According to this vision, terrorism must be included as a subtype in one of the four modalities that are already recognized by international law. This article reflects on the relationship between terrorism and the modalities of war crimes judged by the International Criminal Court (ICC) and seeks to show that the seriousness of the terrorist threat justifies that terrorism should be considered an autonomous international crime.

Complete and Voluntary Abandonment of the Criminal Purpose in the Notes to the Articles of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation on Terrorist Crimes: Grounds for Application

The norms of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation on exemption from criminal liability or noninvolvement therein are an important tool for countering crimes in general. The relevant norms contained in the notes to the articles of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation providing for liability for terrorist crimes are no exception. Of the articles of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation providing for liability for terrorist crimes, the relevant notes are given to Articles 205–206 and 208. However, the effective use of the possibilities contained in the listed articles may be hindered by the confusion of grounds for exemption from criminal liability and grounds excluding criminal liability inherent in them. The author make a conclusion on the need to coordinate the notes to Articles 205–206, 208 of the Criminal Code with the provisions on voluntary abandonment of a crime (Article 31 of the Criminal Code) and complete abandonment of the criminal purpose (part 2 of Article 75 of the Criminal Code). Such coordination is a necessary condition for a clear definition of the legal nature of the circumstances set out in the notes to the above articles of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Currently, unambiguous grounds for differentiating these circumstances into exempting from criminal liability and excluding criminal liability are absent, which leads to contradictory and controversial conclusions when judicial authorities make decisions on cases of terrorist crimes provided for in Articles 205–206, 208 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.

From Extreme Ideas to Violent and Nonviolent Outcomes: An In-Depth Analysis of Probation Files on Terrorist Suspects in the Netherlands

ABSTRACT How do individuals who commit violent terrorist crimes differ from those who commit nonviolent terrorist crimes? In this study, we compare characteristics and pathways of violent (VTS) and nonviolent (NVTS) individuals prior to being suspected or convicted of crimes with terrorist intent (e.g. planning an attack, financing terrorism) in the Netherlands through an analysis of probation files. Departing from a social control and life-course perspective, we examine possible signs and triggers leading up to the terrorist suspicion, various life domains (socio-demographic characteristics, social network, and personality related variables), mental health, criminal histories, and online activities. Findings demonstrate primarily resemblances between both groups. Nonetheless, compared to NVTS, VTS showed more indications of signs of acting in accordance with extreme ideological beliefs and feelings of injustice, had a more disadvantaged socioeconomic background, were more often involved with other radicals (e.g. in groups and/or online), had more substance abuse problems, and were more active online in relation to their terrorist suspicion. NVTS, on the other hand, had more regularly a turbulent youth, more commonly ever showed indications of aggressive behavior, had more often mental health problems, and, consequently, received more social care compared to VTS. Implications and avenues for future research are discussed.

Ensuring the Principle of Legal Certainty as a Way to Counteract the International Terrorism

Introduction. Due to its antisocial and destructive nature, terrorism constitutes a particular threat to the public, national and international security. It is one of the global problems of our time, which leads to the increased tension, has the high conflict potential and extremely negative effect on development and life of a society, a separate state and the globalcommunity on the whole. Cooperation between the national states and the international organisations for combating the international terrorism is most often restricted to the individual cases. In this context, the principles of law, which represent the concentrated essence of the universal values and ideals underlying the legal regulation of the social relationships, become particularly acute and relevant. The present article aims to analyse the theoretical and practical aspects of the principle of legal certainty in counteracting the international terrorism. Materials and Methods. The object of the study is the principle of legal certainty as a tool of counteracting the international terrorism. The dialectical method of cognition was used as the main research method, the general scientific methods of analysis, synthesis and the specific legal methods (empirical and legalistic) were also used. Results. It has been proved that the spread of extremism and terrorism constitutes a threat to the present day international and national legal order. The necessity to formulate a unified general definition of the concept of “terrorism” and to implement the principle of legal certainty in counteracting the international terrorism has been substantiated. Discussion and Conclusion. The research has revealed the need for an optimal and efficient solution for implementation of the non bis in idem (“not twice for the same”) principle with regard to the terrorist crimes (primarily of the international nature), endowing the universal jurisdiction over them, which allows criminal prosecution of the criminals regardless of their location, citizenship or territory, where the individual crime has been committed. The theoretical and practical value of the results obtained is the capacity thereof to be used both in the field of scientific research (for further theoretical study of the problems of counteracting the international terrorism) and in the field of law-making (for improving the Russian Federation legislation on counteracting terrorism). Bearing in mind future research, the special attention should be paid to the optimisation of the legal framework, enhancement of the regulatory legal mechanisms aiming to prevent in an optimal way the international terrorism as a social phenomenon.
