Produktbeschreibung
Until recently, internal use of the armed forces has been generally regarded by the public, as well as academic commentators, as conduct to be expected of a military or autocratic regime, not a democratic government. There is however growing concern that the 'war on terror' has been used to condition public opinion to accept the internal deployment of the armed forces, including for broader industrial and political purposes. This book examines the national and international law, human rights and civil liberties issues involved in governments calling out troops to deal with civil unrest or terrorism. As the introduction of military call-out legislation has become an emerging global trend in the opening years of the 21st century, there is considerable and growing interest in the constitutional and related problems surrounding the deployment of military forces for domestic purposes. Examining the changes underway in six comparable countries, the United States, Canada, Britain, Germany, Japan and Australia, this book provides a review and analysis of this trend, including its implications for legal and political rights.
Autorenporträt
Michael Head is the author of the Threads of Fate and Wandering Warrior series. He was severely injured while serving in the military, and used his time recovering to rediscover his love for books. After medically retiring from fifteen years of service, Michael went back to college to finish his degree in order to become a professor. His love of learning and ability to speak several languages made it an obvious transition, but life had other plans. When the coronavirus shut down his school, his wife encouraged him to finally take the leap and try writing his own books. He found his experiences in combat allowed him to write detailed and realistic fight scenes. Those battles, combined with his attention to detail and ability to plan vast, elaborate, and comprehensive worlds, make for fast-paced and thrilling books. With, of course, the occasional touches of humor and sarcasm thrown in the mix.He currently lives in Kansas with his wife, who is also retired from the military, and their three daughters. Michael is also losing an ongoing war with the neighborhood squirrels that invade his attic, but he will continue to fight until the bitter end against the implacable enemy of mankind.You can connect with Michael on:Website: www.michaelheadauthor.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/author.michael.headPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/michael_headNewsletter: https://sendfox.com/author-michael-head
