New publication: Stamping out rights: the impact of anti-terrorism legislation on policing |

"People across the Commonwealth have the right to live free from fear and states have the responsibility to guarantee their safety and security. As with any other violence, states must effectively prevent terrorism. This is the role of counter-terrorism, and police are amongst the frontline agents in this response.Even more than terrorism itself, the fear of terrorism is a growing global phenomenon and is often the driver for harsh state reactions that have little justification or legal validity. Tragically, in parts of the Commonwealth, measures to counter terrorism are also creating violence and insecurity. Most disturbingly they are undermining human rights, due process and the rule of law: national and international safeguards established to protect people against the abuse of state power". http://www.humanrightsinitiative.org/publications/chogm/chogm_2007/chogm_report_2007.pdf |
