Abstract: State-sponsored assassination refers to the killing or attempted killing of a prominent individual by agencies of a state or actors operating on their behalf.While assassinations also occur in times of war, much of the attention associated with SSA focuses on peacetime assassination.Here, an individual may be targeted either within the territory of the sponsoring state or outside it.There are several interesting dimensions to this controversial practice.
