RT Book T1 Terrorists on trial: a performative perspective A2 Graaf, Beatrice de 1976- A2 Schmid, Alex P. LA English PP Leiden PB Leiden University Press YR 2016 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/869498673 AB "This volume views terrorism trials as a form of theatre, where the 'show' that a trial may offer can develop often unexpected dynamics, which at times might inconvenience the government. Seeing terrorism trials as a stage where legal instruments are used (and abused) to argue the validity of contested political constructs, this study presents a performative perspective to draw attention to the mechanisms and effects of terrorism trials in and outside the courtroom. With a special focus on how the power of these performances may in turn shape new narratives of justice and/or injustice, it offers vital insights into terrorism trials directed involving different types of terrorism suspects, from left-wing to ethno-nationalist and jihadist terrorists, in Spain, Russia, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United States"--Back cover NO Bibliographie "Literature on terrorism trials": Seite 529-576 CN K543.P6 SN 9789087282400 K1 Trials (Terrorism) K1 Trials (Political crimes and offenses) K1 Aufsatzsammlung K1 Terrorismus : Terrorist : Strafverfahren : Politisches Delikt
