Abstract
This note addresses the proscription of terrorist financing under transnational law. It considers both criminal and civil regulatory frameworks. Although the 9/11 attacks certainly galvanized jurisgeneration in this area, important treaties and customary principles preexisted those attacks. Insofar as the law on this topic is quite robust, this note does not provide a typology of every legal prohibition that touches upon terrorist financing. Instead, it offers an overview of the subject matter through case-studies drawn from international treaties and Alien Tort Claims Act litigation in the United States, and it also places the regulatory framework of terrorist financing within both lex lata and lex ferenda regarding the proscription of terrorism generally.
