Summary/Abstract: The paper presents the issue of female terrorism, focusing primarily on selected examples in the United States. It additionally discusses the issues related to the attempt to answer the question of whether a system of counter-terrorism should take into account the gender of members of terrorist organizations, and whether the increasing threat of female terrorism may be one of the catalysts behind institutional and legal changes. Furthermore, the development of female terrorism in other regions of the world is analyzed.
