Abstract

Since the terrorist attacks on Lockerbie and in the U.S.A. in September 2001, there has been a growing awareness of the risk to aviation and other forms of transport from terrorism. This has spurred governments and international organizations to develop strategies to reduce the risk of such attacks. This paper explores the expanding range of regulatory initiatives that have emerged in aviation, maritime and other forms of transport since 9/11.
