Abstract

At present, the "balanced struggle" between national security and human rights in counter-terrorism action is a problem that must be faced by anti-terrorism laws in all countries of the world. Human rights protection is the goal of China's "Anti-Terrorism Law" and its basic restrictions. The law covers specific measures about human rights protection for ordinary citizens, suspected terrorist suspects, counter-terrorism participation and facilitators, and victims. It is a milepost in China's counter-terrorism action. However, China's "Anti-Terrorism Law" has a short development process, and it still has limitations such as lack of censorship system, insufficient legal connection between other laws, and lack of specific restrictions. In this regard, it is possible to establish a sunset clause and judicial review system, improve the connection between other laws, and establish a database of information on terrorism to strengthen the human rights protection of China's Anti-Terrorism Law.
