DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nCounterterror\, as much as it triggers public suppo
 rt\, targets an ill-defined category of acts. Indeed\, States did not\, to
  date\, reach a consensus on a definition of terrorism in international la
 w. On the other hand\, terrorism is criminalized in every State\, which de
 fines it in as many different ways. “Terrorists” and “terrorist groups” ar
 e also the objects of national and international lists and sanctions. Thes
 e regimes come with important powers for the States\, at the height of the
  “exceptional security threat' they face. These\, in turn\, have important
  impacts on human rights\, that derive not only from antiterrorism measure
 s but also from the indeterminacy of terrorism itself\, that latter aspect
  being largely overlooked both in popular perception and academia. The sem
 inar aims to highlight how diverse realities the term “terrorism” encompas
 ses\, depending on regional and national conceptions\, and to bring to lig
 ht some of the most common human rights violations associated with the use
  of such a polysemic and broad legal term. \n\nBio\n\nCamille Marquis Biss
 onnette is a postdoctoral fellow in Law at 9I���������\, for which she received
