Counterterrorism and Investigative Detention explores the practice of investigative detention of terrorist suspects in the legal systems of the United States, the United Kingdom, and France. In addition to illuminating the characteristics, capabilities, and limitations of various investigative detention regimes, this book examines ways in which international law and national security imperatives have served as vectors for change and convergence in these otherwise divergent legal systems.
The chapters include an examination of the way in which each country has experienced and confronted terrorism; an overview of each country's legal system; a detailed analysis of each country's counterterrorism laws; and a discussion of the ways in which international law has impacted their respective counterterrorism approaches. This book, therefore, is situated at the nexus of comparative law, international law, and national security, providing scholars and policymakers with insight into how different countries with contrasting legal traditions address a common national security threat.
This compelling discussion of how different legal systems use their detention laws to address the threat of terrorism will be of interest to comparative lawyers, international lawyers, and national security professionals.
