Maureen Duffy is Assistant Professor of Law at the University of Calgary.
Duffy successfully crafts a comprehensive account of the problematic post-9/11 political discourse on detention … This book is an attractive volume for both theorists and practical observers of current detention practices. -- Kasey McCall-Smith, University of Edinburgh * Edinburgh Law Review * By deconstructing the arguments that were made in the aftermath of 9/11, Professor Duffy provides us with a deeper and richer understanding of law’s response to the challenges that terrorism presented … Professor Duffy’s work should be useful not just in helping us understand the law’s failures and successes with respect to terrorism, it should also help us more generally to understand the pressures that the rule of law necessarily faces in situations of crisis. -- Barry Sullivan, Loyola University Chicago School of Law * Canadian Criminal Law Review *
