The 'War on Terror' and the Framework of International Law by Helen Duffy
Measures taken by states in the name of countering terrorism constantly give rise to new international legal issues. Helen Duffy brings the law to life via detailed case studies which show what the war on terror means in practice for affected individuals and for the rule of law more broadly.
Helen Duffy runs 'Human Rights in Practice', an international law practice specialising in strategic human rights litigation in regional and international fora. She is Gieskes Professor of International Human Rights and Humanitarian Law at the Grotius Centre for International Legal Studies, Universiteit Leiden and Honorary Professor at the University of Glasgow. Helen's previous positions include as Legal Director of INTERIGHTS, Legal Officer at the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, Counsel to Human Rights Watch, Legal Director of the Centre for Human Rights Legal Action (Guatemala), Legal Adviser to the UK Judicial 'Arms for Iraq' Inquiry and Legal Officer in the UK government legal service.
