dc.description.abstract | This study purports to explain security rights violations of the suspected
terrorism. It develops a theoretical model and assesses its predictions on a
sample of post-Soviet states. The author uses original data on security rights
violations of individuals implicated in terrorism and their family members and
supporters collected by means of systematic content analysis of several types of
reports. Contrary to a widely-held belief that the magnitude of terrorism is the
main determinant of human rights practices in the context of ‘war on terror’, the
study finds no support for the impact of terrorist attacks on security rights
violations of the suspects of terrorism. Political conflict, on the other hand,
appears to be a stronger predictor of security rights violations in the post-Soviet
nations. Statistical results also lend support to the impact of international norms
and a number of other factors on human rights violations in the name of
combating terrorism. The author discusses implications of the findings for theory
and practices of human rights. | |
