The Extremist across Law and Criminology

  • Amit Verma

Abstract

The 'terrorist' has also been described as transcending the 'average criminal suspect' as a being. The goal of this paper is to give the reader an outline of the 'terrorism' term considered through numerous legal structures and criminological viewpoints. The 'terrorist' term, legal or not, has more than legal sense in itself: far more so than the 'ordinary criminal suspect,' the terrorist appears to be portrayed as an irregular, deviant person who is impossible to meet 'standard' categories because of the social discredit typically synonymous with notorious terrorist attacks. The lack of any hard-coded description of 'criminal' or 'terrorism' illustrates this.
