In countering terrorism and other serious threats states are increasingly using preventive and preemptive measures. This book looks at the history of preventive measures in the Anglo American legal systems; at preventive war; counterterrorism, at the Bush Doctrine on the preemptive attack on Iraq, and asks whether such an attack on Iran's nuclear programme would be justified. Concludes with a discussion of the jurisprudence of prevention and preemption.
