This dissertation was written as part of the LLM in Transnational and European Commercial Law, Mediation, Arbitration and Energy Law at the International Hellenic University.
International problems call for international solutions and terrorism nowadays is far from an abstract phenomenon and a theoretical discussion. Since 9/11, when terrorists invaded into the heart of the United Nations, there is no debate on the fact that terrorism constitutes an emergent hazard in the 21st century. The repeated recent terrorist attacks in plenty of European capitals now raise scepticism on the role of the international community and the participation of Europe to the “war against terror”.
Taking for granted that “endless money forms the sinews of war” as Cicero said in his fifth Philippic, this dissertation aims to explore the ways by which the International Community, as well as the European Union, confronts the phenomenon of terrorism financing.
