Abstract

This paper analyzes the problem of terrorism and terrorist acts, and role of government authorities to prevent and combat terrorism.

In the recent years we have witnessed numerous terrorist attacks which have taken hundreds of innocent human lives. In such conditions, many questions have risen to the surface about responsibility of the state, which is obligated to prevent such attacks, protect private property and above all, lives of its citizens. Particular attention is devoted to characteristics of antiterrorist activities as a safety instrument of any modern state. The person to whom damage is caused by terrorist attack has the right to file a claim for compensation of material and immaterial damage against the government. The views of the judicial aut- horities, for damage caused due to terrorist acts, are presented at the end of the paper.
