A comprehensive historical examination of governmental security policies in Great Britain during a period of global tension, this book offers an analysis of the relationship between internal security and the preservation of civil liberties. By extensively interviewing relevant figures in British society and politics and exploring events of the time period, the author provides a detailed look at the effects of security policies on education, labour movements, and the lives of individuals, showing the paradoxical nature of a system meant to increase security but which had potentially dangerous consequences for personal freedoms. The author emphasizes the significance of the British experience for understanding the issues of national security and individual rights in all Western democracies.
