On the contrary, I believe that in the long term we shall find that human rights, along with democracy and social justice, are one of the best prophylactics against terrorism." -- Kofi Annan, UN Secratary General.

Did the attacks of September 11 mark a defining moment in the Post Cold War era? What responses may terrorism legitimately attract? What is the legal status of the detainees on Gauntanamo Bay? Have the national and international responses to the attacks of September 11 created new legal paradigms? Human rights repercussions of September 11 with particular reference to the civil liberties implications of both international and national law and policy, is also addressed.Eden, Paul is the author of 'September 11, 2001 A Turning Point In International And Domestic Law?', published 2005 under ISBN 9781571053268 and ISBN 1571053263.
