Publisher Synopsis
"This fine treatise fills a gap in national security scholarship. The authors benchmark UK experience with national security accountability review comprehensively and in a manner that allows lessons to be learned by others." Craig Forcese, University of Ottawa ''When does review of the permanent and sprawling structures of the counter-terrorist state become a tool of legitimation rather than a tool of accountability? This important work grapples with this key question.'' John Ip, University of Auckland ''A succinct and detailed analysis of our new counter-terrorism laws, one that gets under their skin in a highly readable way - a spirited account of a dispiriting story about how difficult it is to halt this anti-extremism juggernaut.'' Conor Gearty, London School of Economics ''Democracy requires intrusive state powers, used on the basis of secret intelligence, to be subject to strong independent review. This book helps define what that review should look like.'' Lord Anderson of Ipswich, former Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation ''This book breaks ground by comprehensively analysing various modes of scrutinizing counter-terrorism law, policy and practice, including judicial, governmental, legislative and civil society mechanisms. The capacious understanding and fair-minded, actionable critique of 'counter-terrorism review' that the authors develop will prove useful to governments, researchers and NGOs in the UK and internationally.'' Surabhi Chopra, Chinese University of Hong Kong Read more...
