Description

A critical analysis of historical and contemporary use of preventative detention and internment as tools in anti-terrorism efforts offers some particular insights into their ineffectiveness. By analyzing the evolution, application, and the controversies surrounding their effectiveness and ethical implications, this work lays bare the folley of such policies. It explores key case studies, from wartime internment practices to post-9/11 detention policies, highlighting how governments have justified these measures in the name of national security and anti-teroroism. Finally, this analysis will critiques the long-term consequences of such practices, including their impact on civil liberties, the rule of law, and public trust.
