Some Controversies on Modern Terrorism
Some Controversies on Modern Terrorism

Summary/Abstract: Terrorism is the historical constant of the civilizing process of the development of human society. All the time the act of terrorism was characterized by violence, recklessness, fear production and the political goals of changing or preserving the existing model of social relations. The modus operandi of the manifestation of terror changed in accordance with the requirements of the time in which the changes in the technical and technological prosperity of society manifested and followed. As a socially destructive phenomenon, it has evolved from a national to an international global criminal act and as a multidisciplinary phenomenon is the subject of the study of political science, sociology, security, criminology, criminal law... The criminal laws of national legislations severely sanction terrorist acts without restricting the legitimate use of force as a means. Internationally, despite the significant codification of certain forms of terrorist acts, no consensus has been reached on defining this anti-globalization term. The absence of a universal definition, as the imperative international norm, is the resultant of the desire of the unipolar hegemon to interpret international law and relations in accordance with its own interests.
