The initial responses to 9/11 engaged categorical questions about
'war', 'terrorism', and 'crime'. Now the implementation of
counter-terrorism law is infused with dichotomies - typically
depicted as the struggle between security and human rights, but
explored more exactingly in this book as traversing boundaries
around the roles of lawyers, courts, and crimes; the relationships
between police, military, and security agencies; and the interplay
of international and national enforcement. The contributors to this
book explore how developments in counter-terrorism have resulted in
pressures to cross important ethical, legal and organizational
boundaries. They identify new tensions and critique the often
unwanted outcomes within common law, civil law, and international
legal systems. This book explores counter-terrorism measures from
an original and strongly comparative perspective and delivers an
important resource for scholars of terrorism laws, strategies, and
politics, as well as human rights and comparative lawyers.
