DRŽAVA U BORBI PROTIV TERORIZMA
THE STATE IN FIGHT AGAIST TERRORISM

Summary/Abstract: The state capacity for the fight against terrorism can not be discussed without taking into consideration changes in the contemporary society and the politics. Considering its global presence, the terorism is also a subject to the international law. Therefore, when it comes to prevention and reaction to the terrorism, the countries around the world have to abide by the terms of the international law. Concerning terrorism and other forms of violence, the countries should continously work on developing and upgrading its prevention systems. The premise is that, every country already has such a system in place, however, in order to bring the fight against terrorism to the next level, it also has to search for possible causes of terrorism. The paper discusses some of the key functional mechanisms of prevention such as border police, the customs, control of money and goods flow, yet it does not overlook direct and indirect effect of indoctrination via educational institutions. Conclusion is that, spreading of terrorism ideology can be stopped by developing and strenghtening democratic values, in spite of poverty and societal differences.
