    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Juridiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Juridiska fakulteten

    Sammanfattning : This thesis will be an attempt to look beyond this relatively new conceptualisation of CRSV committed in the context of terrorism, so called ‘sexual terrorism’, to determine what are its implications for the development of the WPS agenda. Answering the research question ‘What are the consequences of the increased linking of CT and WPS, in particularly with regards to the consideration of sexual terrorism, on prevention from and prosecution of CRSV committed by terrorist organisations and on the development of the WPS framework?’ If this thesis put forward that recognising of the nexus of CRSV and Terrorism in international policy through its inclusion within the WPS framework could be a real step forward for accountability and is a recognition of the harm suffered by the victims, it will underline that potential developments should be nuanced due to the risk of co-optation of the WPS framework for reasons of increasing securitisation and pursuance of national interests.
