Terrorism, Rights and the Rule of Law: Negotiating Justice in Ireland Book

The risk of political violence has constantly threatened the Irish state. To ensure its survival, the state has resorted to emergency laws that weaken due process rights. The effects of counter-terrorism campaigns upon the rule of law governing criminal justice in Ireland are a central feature of this book. Globalization has supported this crossover, as organized crime seems immune to conventional policing tactics. But globalization fragments the authority of the state by introducing a new justice network. New regulatory agencies are entrusted with powers to control novel risks and social movements adopt a human rights discourse to the risk of state power and emergency laws. The result of this conflux of actors and risks is a renegotiation of the model of justice that citizens can expect."Terrorism, Rights and the Rule of Law" contributes to current debates about civil liberties in the war on terror, how counter-terrorism can contaminate criminal justice, and how globalization challenges a state-centred view of criminal justice. It will appeal to students of criminology, law and sociology.Read More
