{"product_id":"9781847319609","title":"EU Counter-Terrorism Law: Pre-Emption and the Rule of Law","description":"EU Counter-Terrorism Law: Pre-emption and the Rule of Law is a detailed study of EU action to combat terrorism since 11 September 2001 and the implications that action has had for the EU legal order.  It critically examines EU counter-terrorism measures to ascertain how rule of law principles have been affected in the 'war on terror'. The book opens with a critical examination of the rule of law in the EU legal order. It then provides an overview of the \"war on terror” before analysing five key facets of EU counter-terrorism: the common European definition of terrorism along with related offences contained in the Framework Decision on Combating Terrorism; the EU's anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist finance laws; UN and EU targeted asset-freezing sanctions; EU data retention measures such as the Data Retention Directive and the Passenger Name Records agreements; and the European Arrest Warrant and European Evidence Warrant. The book argues that EU counter-terrorism is weakening the rule of law and bypassing safeguards in favour of a system emphasising coercive control over individual autonomy. It concludes by examining the prospects for the future as the EU becomes a more powerful security actor following the Lisbon Treaty and the adoption of the Stockholm Programme. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'an impressively accurate and alarming analysis'\u003cbr\u003eMs Sophia In 't Veld MEP and Vice-Chair of the European Parliament Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2ND Prize winner of the Society of Legal Scholars Peter Birks Prize for Outstanding Legal Scholarship 2013","brand":"Bloomsbury USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47164313501936,"sku":"9781847319609","price":26.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781847319609_p0.jpg?v=1763747572","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781847319609","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
