The responses of governments and international institutions to terrorism raise        some of the most controversial issues of the twenty-first century. In particular,        attempts to balance the desire to achieve security with the safeguarding of human        rights and other aspects of the rule of law have proved to be highly        contentious.This book is unique, not only in terms of its multinational,        multidisciplinary nature, but also due to its truly comprehensive approach. It        reviews, and examines, the interrelationship between the four principal elements of        the international rule of law framework (international human rights, humanitarian,        criminal, and refugee/asylum law) within in which counter-terrorism responses should        occur.It focuses primarily on some of the most pressing, emerging, and/or        under-researched issues and tensions. These include policy choices associated with        meeting security imperatives; the tensions between the criminal justice, or        preventive, approach to counter-terrorism and the military approach; the        identification of lacunae within existing legal frameworks; and tensions between        executive, judicial, and legislative responses. These matters are examined at the        national, regional, andinternational levels.The book addresses a wide spectrum of        issues, including analysis of key legal principles; emergency and executive        measures; radicalization; governmental and institutional impunity; classification,        administration and treatment of battlefield detainees; the use of lethal force ;        forms of, and treatment in, detention;non-refoulement; diplomatic assurances;        interrogation versus torture; extraordinary rendition; discrimination; justice and        reparations for victims of terrorist attacks andsecurity responses; (mis)use of        military courts, commissions, and immigration tribunals; judicial and institutional        developed and emerging rule of law norms on terrorism; non-judicial oversight by        means of democratic accountability; and the identification and analysis of best        practices, including inter-regionaljudicial and other forms of cooperation, and        developed practices for the handling and use of sensitive information.Drawing        together an impressive spectrum of legal and non-legal, national and institutional,        practitioner, policy, and academic expertise, this book is an essential and        comprehensive reference work on counter-terrorism policy, practice, and        law-making.
