영문 초록

The terrorism on September 11, 2001 to the World Trade Center and the Pentagon shocked the world and warned about the danger of new terrorism. The past terrorism was focused on kidnapping, assassination, and bombing of major buildings or facilities, however, the emerging new terrorism brings about massive human casualties and psychological horror. After the end of the Cold War, people in the world expected that more secure and peaceful era than ever before would come to exist. Contrary to that expectations, conflict and confrontation has continued all around the world due to conflicting interests between different races and religious groups on territorial issues, natural resources, etc. In addition, rapid development in science, technology, and communication system may provide new weapons for terrorists. Terrorists in the past used personal weapons and bombs as a means of terrorism. In recent years, the possibility for the terrorists to use weapons of mass destruction has been significantly increased, and the scope of damage caused by terrorism has been expanded. Terrorists in recent years do not have any specific targets, but tend to conduct unspecified, indiscriminated terrorism against general public. Assassination, kidnapping, and bombing has become not effective means of terrorism in the era of information, instead, cyber-terrorism has become an important means of terrorism. Furthermore, terrorists may acquire easily weapons of mass destruction. Although terrorism has existed with the history of human being, the threats of terrorism has increased and international norm that controls terrorism has not been not effective. Terrorism was widely used in the era of Roman Empire to eliminate opposition political groups or leaders. During the period of French Revolution, terrorism was publicly conducted under the name of 'politics of terrorism' After the World War I, 'Convention for the prevention and punishment of terrorism' was established in Geneva in 1937, however, the convention has not been effective to control terrorism due to different interpretations on terrorism among different countries. Various international conventions to control terrorism against hijacking, diplomats, and bombing have been established, but international society has not found effective means to eliminate terrorism. Due to ineffective international norm to control terrorism, Palestinian liberation movement groups and Arab nationalist groups depended on terrorism to achieve their political goals in 1960s and 1970s. The threats by terrorism further increased in 1990s. After the incident of September 11, countries in the world have become well aware of danger of terrorism and make strenuous efforts to prepare effective measures against terrorism The new terrorism that emerged after the incident of September 11 may use biological and chemical weapons and cyber terrorism. Terrorist groups supported by nation-states are increasing. Terrorist groups works secretly, and try to find connections with non-government organizations. The cyber-terrorism which is called as information warfare can be characterized into three types: ? cyber-terrorism which is conducted by individual hackers; ? cyber-terrorism which is conducted by crime organizations such as “trident” of the Netherlands or “hacking Maffia” of Russia; ? cyber-terrorism which is conducted by nation-states or organizations supported by nation-states. The most dangerous one is the third type. Cyber-terrorists may use computer virus, worm or spam mails to paralyze internet or national communication systems. In addition, with the rapid development of science and technology, the possibility of WMD proliferation has been increased. Therefore, terrorist groups may acquired weapons of mass destruction relatively easily. As we witnessed at the terrorism conducted at the Tokyo subway and the anthrax terrorism after the September 11,
