On Liberty is the story of today's threats to our freedoms and a
highly personal, impassioned plea in defence of fundamental rights,
from Shami Chakrabarti, Britain's leading human rights campaigner
On 11 September 2001, our world changed. The West's response to
9/11 has morphed into a period of exception. Governments have
decided that the rule of law and human rights are often too costly.
In On Liberty, Shami Chakrabarti explores why our fundamental
rights and freedoms are indispensable. She shows, too, the
unprecedented pressures those rights are under today. Drawing on
her own work in high-profile campaigns, from privacy laws to
anti-terror legislation, Chakrabarti shows the threats to our
democratic institutions and why our rights are paramount in
upholding democracy. 'Probably the most effective public affairs
lobbyist of the past 20 years' - David Aaronovitch, The Times 'The
undaunted freedom fighter' - Observer 'The most dangerous woman in
Britain' - Sun
