    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.

    Sammanfattning : In 2016, the Constitutional Court of Guatemala ruled in favor of validating the application of ancestral justice by the indigenous authorities of the community of Comitancillo, San Marcos, to an individual who raped a 10-year-old girl. In addition to recognizing the application of an ancestral punishment that consisted in asking for forgiveness and receiving some lashings from members of his family as valid, the court ordered the dismissal of the case in the legal ordinary system, claiming the aggressor had already been judged and punished.
