In spite of its significant effects on everyday life, the effects of transnational counter-terrorism are not well understood. Drawing on insights from law, international relations, political science and security studies, this study shows the impacts and argues that counter-terrorism is expansionary, rights-limiting and unaccountable.

This book outlines the US and UK's counter-terrorist detention policies and the reactions thereto by international human rights institutions and domestic apex courts. It presents an argument of interest to lawyers and political scientists that international human rights law may be more resilient to counter-terrorist panic than domestic law.
