Emerging neurotechnology offers increasingly individualised brain
information, enabling researchers to identify mental states and
content. When accurate and valid, these brain-reading technologies
also provide data that could be useful in criminal legal
procedures, such as memory detection with EEG and the prediction of
recidivism with fMRI. Yet, unlike in medicine, individuals involved
in criminal cases will often be reluctant to undergo brain-reading
procedures. This raises the question of whether coercive
brain-reading could be permissible in criminal law. Coercive
Brain-Reading in Criminal Justice examines this question in view of
European human rights: the prohibition of ill-treatment, the right
to privacy, freedom of thought, freedom of expression, and the
privilege against self-incrimination. The book argues that, at
present, the established framework of human rights does not exclude
coercive brain-reading. It does, however, delimit the permissible
use of forensic brain-reading without valid consent. This
cautionary, cutting-edge book lays a crucial foundation for
understanding the future of criminal legal proceedings in a world
of ever-advancing neurotechnology.
