"Society Facing Terrorism: What Role for Trials?" - with Sandrine Lefranc

What are society's reactions to terrorism? What does the trial of the November 13, 2015 attacks tell us? What responses can our democracy provide? A collective of researchers from diverse disciplines aimed to answer these questions by studying the proceedings of the trial of the November 13, 2015 attacks, known as the V13 trial. They contextualized their observations from the ten months of the trial with their knowledge of similar trials and broader issues such as the links between justice and wars, radicalism, and political violence. Their observations are the subject of two study days on November 10 and 17, 2022, organized by the Center for European Studies and Comparative Politics (CEE) and the Center for International Studies (CERI).
