Abstract :

If we would consider the terrorism as a social threat that can affect the people depending on the local and time circumstances, the notion of danger and dangerousness would make sense in responding and combating that. If we would consider the terrorist actions as a criminal or at least as a harmful behavior and, taking account the accepted functions and goals for punishment, pursuit to repress them through the classic punishment system, they would be subject of the suppressive criminal reactions, but base on the several indications, new approaches could be more influential about this matter. Particularly these new approaches consist of risk management and dangerous situations control through the legal ways. According to this new approach terrorist actions are considered as a social risk which shall be subjected of risk management. This noncriminal actions could be preferred on criminal reactions because they could remove the challenges related to security in antiterrorism legislating, and on the other hand they could be more influential than criminal actions and put more controls on these kind of actions
