Description
International Counterterrorism Law provides a thorough analysis of the legal mechanisms, treaties, and conventions that form the foundation of global counterterrorism efforts. Stuart Casey-Maslen examines the complex interplay between international humanitarian law, human rights law, and security objectives.
The book explores key instruments including the UN conventions on terrorism, Security Council resolutions, and regional counterterrorism frameworks. It addresses critical issues such as the definition of terrorism, the use of force, detention practices, and the protection of civilians. Casey-Maslen navigates the tension between effective security measures and the maintenance of fundamental human rights and rule of law.
Published by Cambridge University Press, this work serves as an essential reference for legal professionals, policymakers, government officials, and academics seeking to understand the international legal landscape of counterterrorism operations and compliance.
