The problem of terrorism has now evolved into one of the most pressing challenge in the development of modern civilization. Although the roots of terrorism have a long history, the problem is extremely relevant today, due to the exacerbation of social, economic and political contradictions and the escalation of violent conflicts globally. Political disagreements and violent confrontations in worldwide community contribute to an increase in terrorist activities, expressed by the actions of individual, extremist groups and organizations. The increasing complexities of these terrorist activities are becoming more and more intricate, and the rising level of sophistry and the anti-human nature of these acts is becoming more and more evident. Terrorism is no longer just a threat, but has become a truly catastrophic factor in our society, turning into a financially lucrative business for those who organize it. It is crucial to realize that the current legislative framework and the practical system of counter-terrorism require continuous improvement. In this light, it is essential to develop practical suggestions and recommendations aimed to contribute towards this improvement. This requires dealing with a wide range of issues related to strengthening the legal basis to fight terrorism and optimizing the organizational system dedicated to counter-terrorism activities. It is also important to analyze the specifics of human actions in extreme situations generated by terrorist acts, to develop rules of conduct in such situations, to manage threats of terrorist attacks and to implement effective protection measures.
