For the last 70 years we've been lied to. What began as a covert black ops program to keep reverse-engineered ET technologies from the Soviets during the Cold War has become a compartmentalized criminal transnational enterprise illegally kept from presidents, world leaders, and congress. Dr. Steven M. Greer, the world's foremost authority on UFOs and ETS has provided briefing materials for sitting U.S. Presidents, members of congress, directors of the CIA and DIA, world leaders, and members of the Joint Chiefs. As founder and director of CSETI (Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence) he has pioneered CE-5 protocols that have enabled thousands of civilians to engage in peaceful...
The term 'margin of appreciation' has been used for some time to refer to the room for manoeuvre that the Strasbourg institutions are prepared to accord national authorities in fulfilling some of their principal obligations under the European Convention for Human Rights. This document proposes how the meaning of the term may be given greater clarity, coherence and consistency.
Greer unveils the actual contact experiences he has had with UFOs and extraterrestrial civilizations, beginning as a young child. Following a prolonged near-death experience at age 17, Greer explains that he experienced cosmic consciousness and found the Rosetta Stone of ET contact -- the power of the unbounded mind within each of us -- that is responsible for much of the work being done by the CSETI (Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence) project.
This book reframes the historical, legal and moral discourse on the question of whether torture can be justified in exceptional circumstances.
The first volume of the definitive political history of Northern Ireland.
A state of emergency has existed in Northern Ireland since 1922. Security forces have broad powers to stop and question people, to search their homes, to detain them without charges for as long as sevendays and to exclude them from Northern Ireland or Great Britain. The right to trial by jury has been suspended for offenses related to terrorism. Political violence is a daily occurrence, and death is commonplace; almost 2, 900 people have died in "The Troubles" since 1969.
Drawing on critical theories within and without the international legal discipline, this book offers a fresh approach to the debate on global constitutionalism – an approach that attempts to get beyond the liberal democratic trajectories in which it is currently entrenched.
In September 2001, the world witnessed the horrific events of 9/11. A great deal has happened on the counterterrorist front in the 20 years since. While the terrorist threat has greatly diminished in Northern Ireland, the events of 9/11 and their aftermath have ushered in a new phase for the rest of the UK with some familiar, but also many novel, characteristics. This ambitious study takes stock of counterterrorism in Britain in this anniversary year. Assessing current challenges, and closely mirroring the ‘four Ps’ of the official CONTEST counterterrorist strategy – Protect, Prepare, Prevent, and Pursue – it seeks to summarize and grasp the essence of domestic law and policy, without being burdened by excessive technical detail. It also provides a rigorous, context-aware, illuminating, yet concise, accessible, and policy-relevant analysis of this important and controversial subject, grounded in relevant social science, policy studies, and legal scholarship. This book will be an important resource for students and scholars in law and social science, as well as human rights, terrorism, counterterrorism, security, and conflict studies.
Leading constitutional theorists debate the merits of proportionality, the nature of rights, the practice of judicial review, and moral and legal reasoning.
