The aftermath of the 9\/11 terrorist attacks against the United States in 2001 sparked a surge of scholarly research on the proliferation of terrorism and the efforts to combat international terrorist groups, organizations, and networks. Civil society organizations have faced accusations of serving as ideological breeding grounds for potential terrorists and facilitating terrorist financing. As a result, states worldwide have implemented new counter-terrorism measures specifically targeting civil society organizations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSecurity practices by states have become a prevalent trend, contributing to the establishment of \"best practices\" among non-liberal democratic or authoritarian states. These exceptional security measures are deeply ingrained in their security infrastructures, particularly in developing or newly democratized states, which are often perceived as democratically weak or fragile. In these contexts, these measures are often employed as a cover for repressing opposition groups, which are deemed threats to their national security and political power apparatuses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis timely volume offers a detailed examination of the interplay between counter-terrorism and civil society, providing a critical analysis of the enforcement of global security measures by governments worldwide. It sheds light on the challenges and complexities faced by civil society organizations in navigating the increasingly restrictive environment, while also examining the implications of these measures for democratic governance and human rights. By exploring the complex dynamics between state power and civil society, this book contributes to a deeper understanding of the complex challenges posed by counter-terrorism in the 21st century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 668g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 163 x 242 x 27 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781526157928\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44099558834426,"sku":"9781526157928","price":75.86,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/ab001bd4a726778f078316e7cdf80ac3.jpg?v=1633056095","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/counter-terrorism-and-civil-society-post-9-11-progress-and-challenges","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
