Résumé
"The article deals with the impact of the war on terror as aglobal trend, focusing on the particular case of Yemen. Thiscase warrants interest not only because it has been relativelyneglected by western observers in recent years, but alsobecause it illustrates the outcome volatility of the war onterror strategy in a less controversial setting than those of Iraqand Afghanistan. After a brief review of the present politicalsituation in Yemen, the paper analyzes the legality of theactions conducted by Yemen's government under the war onterror leitmotif in the light of domestic and internationalhuman rights law."
