| Abstract | Since 2001, the vast majority of terrorist suspects in the UK have been dealt with through criminal prosecutions and trials in the ordinary English courts. However, the British government has also been determined to give itself extra powers to deal with a relatively small proportion of suspects that its feels cannot be prosecuted through the courts. This article focuses on the introduction of powers that allowed the government to detain foreign terrorist suspects indefinitely without trial and to restrict individuals’ movements through the imposition of control orders. These measures have been highly controversial and have been contested by important sections of British society. In this context, the powers have either been significantly constrained by the courts or dropped by the government. Analysing these developments, the article shows how norms of security, liberty and proportionality have helped to shape and constrain Britain’s legal response to terrorism over the last decade. Such constraints raise questions about the commonplace belief that liberal democracies in the post 9/11 world are moving towards the development of increasingly authoritarian responses to terrorism. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
