Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005 - Conclusion

Conclusion

'In view of these inherent qualms about measures of “control,” societies such as the United Kingdom and the United States would be well advised to adopt a criminal justice approach as the core response to terrorism rather than resorting to exceptional or extraordinary measures. A criminal justice response carries the important moral platform of legitimacy and fairness, whilst also offering a practical response to danger. Expedients such as control orders may be acceptable in extremis by providing short-term abeyances from criminal justice but should not be adopted as long-term solutions to troublesome friends or foes.' (Walker, C., 'Keeping control of terrorists without losing control of constitutionalism' (2007) 59 Stanford Law Review 1395-1463).

Famous quotes containing the word conclusion:

    “The chess pieces are the block alphabet which shapes thoughts; and these thoughts, although making a visual design on the chess-board, express their beauty abstractly, like a poem.... I have come to the personal conclusion that while all artists are not chess players, all chess players are artists.”
    —Marcel Duchamp (1887–1968)

    “So this
    Is man; so—what better conclusion is there—
    The day will not follow night, and the heart
    Of man has a little dignity, but less patience
    Than a wolf’s,”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “Girls who put out are tramps. Girls who don’t are ladies. This is, however, a rather archaic usage of the word. Should one of you boys happen upon a girl who doesn’t put out, do not jump to the conclusion that you have found a lady. What you have probably found is a lesbian.”
    —Fran Lebowitz (b. 1951)
