{"product_id":"9789089791184","title":"The State of Exception and Militant Democracy in a Time of Terror","description":"International Studies Library\u003cp\u003eWhich measures may a state undertake when its very existence is threatened? Can it suspend the democratic legal order, may it prohibit undemocratic political parties, can it withhold fundamental constitutional rights from those who intend to abuse them? Or, in case of an external threat, may the state use force in anticipatory self-defense? In addressing these issues, two legal-philosophical doctrines play a crucial role, namely: the state of exception and militant democracy. Unlike other books, this book offers an interdisciplinary approach to both doctrines by a variety of international scholars. The state of exception and militant democracy are viewed from a legal-philosophical, legal-positivist and sociological perspective, thereby creating a broad perspective on how states actually deal and how they should deal with diverse threats to their (democratic) existence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTABLE OF CONTENTS\u003cbr\u003eAbbreviations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter I: Introduction: The State of Exception and Militant Democracy in a Time of Terror - Afshin Ellian and Gelijn Molier\u003cbr\u003eChapter II: The State of Exception in a Time of Terror - Afshin Ellian\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter III: Dutch Counterterrorism: An Exceptional Body of Legislation or Just an Inevitable Product of the Culture of Control? - Maartje van der Woude\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter IV: Framing the Exception.
