Rezensionen
"Kathryn Marie Fisher's Security, Identity, and British Counterterrorism Policy explores the interrelated connections of discourse, security, and identity construction in counterterrorism. ... The book provides a strong empirical analysis that traces the causal connectivity in explaining how counterterrorism law in the United Kingdom was shaped, legitimized, and normalized based on identity constructions. It provides a useful study about relational mechanisms that shape the securitization of counterterrorism." (Ryan Shaffer, Terrorism and Political Violence, Vol. 29 (5), 2017)
