Routledge research in terrorism and the law
Content:
"In September 2001, the world witnessed the horrific events of 9/11. A great deal has happened on the counterterrorist front in the twenty years since. While the terrorist threat has greatly diminished in Northern Ireland, the events of 9/11 and their aftermath have ushered in a new phase for the rest of the UK with some familiar, but also many novel characteristics. This ambitious study takes stock of counterterrorism in Britain in this anniversary year. Assessing current challenges, and closely mirroring the four Ps of the official CONTEST counterterrorist strategy - Protect, Prepare, Prevent, and Pursue, - it seeks to summarise and grasp the essence of domestic law and policy, without being burdened by excessive technical detail. It also provides a rigorous, context-aware, illuminating, yet concise, accessible and policy-relevant analysis of this important and controversial subject, grounded in relevant social science, policy studies, and legal scholarship. This book will be an important resource for students and scholars in law and social science, as well as human rights, terrorism, counterterrorism, security and conflict studies"--
