Preventive detention law is a subject which continues to receive great international attention. In recent years the legal rights of detainees have been more & more frequently litigated, & significant new approaches have been developed. There is, however, no current publication which deals with the new preventive detention law. The purpose of this book is to provide a discussion of the new preventive detention law in 15 common-law jurisdictions, mainly in Asia & Africa, focusing on the practical operation of the law rather than the theoretical issues relating to the legitimacy of such laws. The book will be of practical assistance to those practicing or studying this important area of law. It will be of particular interest to human rights lawyers, activists & researchers. All the chapters are contributed by academics or practitioners specializing in the field of human rights law.

This book explores the extent and significance of the transformation of the Organisation of American States since 1991: its roots, the reasons for and extent of its emergence, and the role that the organisation currently plays in the promotion of regional governance in the two key issue-areas of security and the defense and promotion of democratic norms and principles of good governance. By assessing where the OAS has succeeded and failed, Horwitz provides an in-depth explanation of how cooperation and consensus works in the Inter-American system.
