Abstract

In this paper is analyzed the changes that the reform made by LO 2/2015 has introduced into Spanish antiterrorist criminal law. Specifically, is studied how the irruption of the new jihadist terrorism has led the Spanish legislator to try to avoid the initial behaviours of active and passive terrorist indoctrination, recruitment and training trough the introduction of a set of crimes, which generates problems of coordination with previously existing crimes, sometimes, limits disproportionately some fundamental rights and, therefore, should be subject to a deep review.
