Abstract

Terrorism is one of the greatest threats to our globalised society. Constantly shifting its shape and emerging in unexpected new forms, it demands urgent, collective action to counter and contain it. But what is the price for such protection in terms of fundamental human rights and should we be prepared to pay it ? This book provides an essential introduction to the issues raised by controversial counter-terror measures since 9/11. Weighing up the competing claims of civil liberties versus global security, it sheds a much-needed light on the unpredictable new world in which we now find ourselves.

Abstract

This book provides the first full-length treatment of the ways in which conflict-related sexual violence can be understood through the lens of securitization theory. Uniquely applying Barry Buzan's and Ole Weaver's theories of securitization to mass sexual violence atrocities, the author reveals the wide-ranging complexities of the securitization of rape. Using the Bosnia War and Rwandan genocide as events which set new, unprecedented legal frontiers, this book explores the inherent links between systematic rape, war and global security. Bosnia initiated the first convictions of rape as a crime against humanity, while the Judges of the Tribunal of Rwanda further expanded these legal parameters by viewing rape as a distinct feature and mechanism of genocide. The author's analysis seeks to provide a progressive research agenda that addresses the incentives and disincentives for the continued securitization of rape in violent conflict.
