This contribution gives an overview of experiences with terrorism and the development of counterterrorism strategies in Germany. The formal definition of "terrorist offences" is found in §§ 129a, b Criminal Code. With that, the Federal Republic of Germany has implemented the EU framework decision on terrorism. § 129a encloses a wide approach to terrorist offences and covers recruitment, training, preparatory acts, financing etc. Special arrangements for preventive detention without charge in terror cases do not exist; however, § 129a may serve as a ground to impose pre-trial detention without resorting to conventional grounds such as risk of absconding or obstruction of justice.

AbstractThe article discusses different examples of data-driven policing, its legal provisions and effects on a society's understanding of public security. It distinguishes between (a) the collection of classical data such as fingerprints or DNA, which serve to identify suspects and to collect evidence, (b) the processes and the impetus of big data, and (c) the networking of files from different security authorities. Discussing systematic forecasting tools, the article works out a significant difference between the prediction of incidents such as home burglary in the case of predictive policing, and the identification of individuals deemed to be at risk of involvement in various forms of crime in the case of risk control programs. Data and personality protection are interrelated issues.

Ich will die vorstehenden Ausführungen in den folgenden Punkten zusammenfassen: Es ist offensichtlich, dass das Strafrecht zunehmend für die Sicherheitspolitik, die Risikovorsorge und die Gefahrenabwehr in Anspruch genommen wird.Damit entfernt sich das Strafrecht von dem eigentlich Unverzichtbaren, nämlich Schuld undVerhältnismäßigkeit sowie von dem Verständnis von Strafrecht als ultimaratiound seinem "fragmentarischen" Charakter.Für die Einhegung eines Sicherheitsstrafrechts ist eine wirksame verfassungs- und menschenrechtliche Kontrolle von entscheidender Bedeutung. ; No abstracts in English ; Brak abstraktu w języku polskim
