Opis

The proposed monograph would have two parts, the first of which would address the direct legal regulation of and response to threats to national security (mainly but not exclusively the threat of international terrorism) in a primarily descriptive fashion. The second would consider, along thematic lines, certain secondary and derivative effects of the renewed prominence of national security considerations in the modern constitution. The book, though, is not about counter-terrorism law, nor even about national security law more broadly. It is instead a work of domestic constitutional scholarship which takes as its object the law and practice of national security, treating that topic through the lens of the rules, principles and concepts which comprise the United Kingdom's constitutional order.
