Counter-Terrorist Law and Emergency Powers in the United Kingdom 1922 - 2000

Monday 27 December 2004, by Donohue Laura K.

The British military involvement in Northern Ireland is well described in this book. The author emphasizes the relationship between measures of exception on the one hand and military and police practices on the other in the so-called «troubles in Northern Ireland». This book is crucial with regards to the effects of emergency measures on military, political and social discourses and practices.
