Recenzii
Ewing, Mahoney and Moretta have done a great service to the discipline in demonstrating what can be achieved in the domain of national security law notwithstanding the various obstacles which exist on standard doctrinal and socio-legal research in that field.
This book examines the constitutional position of MI5 and how far its practice conforms to its constitutional role. It is a work of immense value for anyone wishing to comprehend the historical role of the secret services and their impact on British life and politics over more than a century. This is an invaluable work of legal history and gives us an understanding of the past, helping us to assess problems of the present and the continued abuse of surveillance powers by the state.
Though much of MI5's post-war history remains shrouded in secrecy, the authors have performed a forensic analysis of the available evidence. They reach disturbing conclusions about the overreach of Britain's secret state.
It is a superbly structured work of scholarship which examines a range of topics in depth and rounds off each chapter (and the book itself) with a definitive conclusion.
