Abstract

The fight against terrorism requires the maximum respect for human rights. If a nation disregards human rights in fighting terrorism, the nation loses respect as well as complicates the counterterrorism battle. This article examines the general requirement for States to uphold human rights while countering terrorism, focusing particularly on the main normative developments prompted by the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001 and the ensuing intensification of international counterterrorism efforts.
