International Law Aspects of Countering Terrorism

---

The format of the publication provides short answers to many of the questions about inter- national law frequently asked during UNODC/TPB training workshops and other technical assistance activities. It is written in simple language and sets out the fundamentals of inter- national law without exploring the more complex debates and arguments that exist in relation to international law and its relation to terrorism in particular. The publication thus does not attempt to cover all issues related to the international legal framework of counter-terrorism with the same weight. Some issues, which typically generate more questions, are dealt with in more detail. The publication should not be seen as an academic work and the format with minimal references reflects its practical introductory nature. International law and its applica- tion in a terrorism-related context is the subject of many publications and of a series of in- depth analyses produced by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC). This should be seen as a springboard to more in-depth analysis of the issues which can be found in a number of other tools and publications produced by UNODC.a
By the very nature of this publication as a general introduction, its content does not reflect authoritative substantive positions of the various United Nations entities.
