Shadow 2019

This book seeks to examine this process via a detailed empirical exploration of the impact of counter-terrorism measures on the criminal justice systems of three selected EU countries with varying histories and experience of terrorism, namely, the UK, France and Poland. In the burgeoning criminological literature on security, risk and preventive justice that has followed the 9/11 attacks, concerns have regularly been expressed about the ‘contagion’ or normalising effects of counter-terrorist law and its migration to other areas of the criminal law. This book particularly explores the synergistic relationship between counter-terrorism measures and control measures aimed at ‘ordinary’ crimes.

'Any reader of this book is sure to discover a Kabul so unlike what the media portrays. Taran's love of her city comes across in her enchanting evocation of a city where so many tragedies echo from across Kabul's decades of war' Raja Shehadeh, author of Palestinian Walks
