Balancing counter-terrorism measures with civil liberties and human rights
Author(s): Kumari Sukriti
Abstract: In the post-9/11 global security landscape, governments have increasingly implemented extensive counter-terrorism measures designed to protect national security. While such measures are necessary to combat terrorism, they often risk undermining civil liberties and violating fundamental human rights. This paper examines the complex relationship between counter-terrorism efforts and the protection of civil liberties. Drawing on legal frameworks, empirical data, and international human rights standards, it explores how states can balance security imperatives with the preservation of individual freedoms. The study argues for a rule-of-law-based approach that ensures accountability, transparency, and proportionality in counter-terrorism policies, in accordance with international norms.
