AB In the framework of the fight against international terrorism the UN Security Council (SC) has adopted targeted sanctions against individuals and corporate entities. Furthermore, it has imposed on states a number of obligations of a general nature. The implementation of all these measures   some of which bear on sensitive aspects of criminal law and procedure   is left to the Member States. This article attempts to provide an overview of national implementation practices, based on the national reports submitted by states pursuant to the relevant SC resolutions. Besides the many difficulties encountered by states in implementing SC resolutions, the encroachment of anti-terror measures on human rights is a cause for concern. The current attitude of the SC, which has integrated human rights considerations into the security concerns that inspire its action under Chapter VII of the Charter, should enhance the perception of legitimacy of its anti-terror policy and, arguably, improve the effectiveness of its measures
