Background paper presented by Sanjana Hattotuwa at 'Security, Independence and Liberty after September 11th: Getting the Balance Right', a conference organised by the 21st Century Trust on 12th to 18th May 2002 at Klingenthal Castle, near Strasbourg, France.
The conference examined the dynamics of the socio-political spectrum, with an examination of the profound implications of 9-11 not only for counter-terrorist strategies of the future, but also for constitutional and legal norms, for policing, and for the interaction between government and society in general.
