Description
In the aftermath of 9/11, there has been a general consensus that an armed attack of sufficient gravity is still a requisite element to establish the right of self-defence in international law. Debate has however surrounded the level of state responsibility required to invoke this right. It has been suggested that a new threshold has arisen post 9/11 and that state responsibility now encompasses the 'harbouring' of non-state actors. The author examines this argument in light of the international community's support for the US response to 9/11, the two Security Council Resolutions affirming the right and State practice post 9/11. The author then proposes a suitable threshold of state responsibility appropriate for today's threats. Introduction
