REWARDING MEASURES WITH A VIEW TO PREVENTING TERRORISM. RESULTS FROM A EUROPEAN RESEARCH PROJECT
FIGHTER
FIGHT AGAINST INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM
DISCOVERING EUROPEAN MODELS OF REWARDING MEASURES TO PREVENT TERRORISM
(LINK TO THE PROJECT’S WEBSITE)
A number of European countries which experienced internal terrorist threats in the past (e.g. Italy and Spain) have already been regularly applying ‘reward’ measures -such as the recognition of mitigating circumstances, prison benefits and so on- with some degree of success; they basically induced captured terrorists to cooperate with the authorities, taking advantage of the fact that many extremists were merely “flankers” of a terrorist organisation and therefore still sensitive to the loss of freedom, as well as widely rehabilitable.
These measures have effectively strengthened the judicial response to the phenomenon of internal terrorism.
Over the course of the past two years, the FIGHTER project carefully explored whether reward measures can be implemented against international terrorism as well.
Results will be introduced and discussed in an open seminar taking place on
THURSDAY, MAY 20TH, 2021
9:00 -13.00 a.m.
