Terrorism and the State
Rethinking the Rules of State Responsibility
Book • 2006
In this book, Tal Becker examines the impact of terrorism on international law, particularly focusing on the events of September 11, 2001.
He argues that these attacks led to a spontaneous change in international law, justifying the U.S.
retaliation against Afghanistan despite the absence of direct provocation from the Afghan government.
The book delves into the complexities of state responsibility and the legal implications of harboring terrorist organizations, making a case for a new paradigm in international law to address such scenarios.
The work is highly technical and is recommended for professional readers in the field of international law.
