Jus cogens norms protect fundamental values of the international community, are hierarchically superior and non-derogable. The author argues, based on an analysis of the sources of international law, that the prohibition of terrorism has become the jus cogens norm of our time. She further considers the impact of the status of the prohibition of terrorism as a jus cogens norm on other norms of international law relevant in the fight against terrorism, namely the prohibition of torture, the right to a fair trial and the prohibition of the inter-state use of force.Terrorism (International law)Jus cogens (International law)TerrorismPreventionLaw and legislationTerrorism (International law)Jus cogens (International law)TerrorismPreventionLaw and legislation.344.0532517De Beer Aniel Caro786302NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910793496403321Peremptory norms of general international law (Jus Cogens) and the prohibition of terrorism1750883UNINA
