DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\n(En anglais seulement) Counterterror\, as much as i
 t triggers public support\, targets an ill-defined category of acts. Indee
 d\, States did not\, to date\, reach a consensus on a definition of terror
 ism in international law. On the other hand\, terrorism is criminalized in
  every State\, which defines it in as many different ways. “Terrorists” an
 d “terrorist groups” are also the objects of national and international li
 sts and sanctions. These regimes come with important powers for the States
 \, at the height of the “exceptional security threat' they face. These\, i
 n turn\, have important impacts on human rights\, that derive not only fro
 m antiterrorism measures but also from the indeterminacy of terrorism itse
 lf\, that latter aspect being largely overlooked both in popular perceptio
 n and academia. The seminar aims to highlight how diverse realities the te
 rm “terrorism” encompasses\, depending on regional and national conception
 s\, and to bring to light some of the most common human rights violations 
 associated with the use of such a polysemic and broad legal term. \n\nBio
