Title of Project :The UK Strategy of Counter-Terrorism: Can Lessons be Learned from the use of Exclusion Orders in Northern Ireland?

Project Description :

This research explores the impact of the counter-terrorist strategy of exclusion.  The strategy of exclusion orders was introduced under the Prevention of Terrorism Act 1974 and was used until the mid 1990s. This research will investigate the impact of this strategy on the individual in terms of the impact on their family life, employment, social networks, political activism, political participation etc. The research will then explore parallels between this historical strategy of dealing with threats to national security and the current strategy of the UK government of deportation with diplomatic assurances of suspected international terrorists. The question I will ask is can lessons be learned from the use of exclusion orders in Northern Ireland and can those lessons be applied to the current scenario
