Abstract

PurposeThis paper aims to give an overview of the development of human rights within the UK and suggests to the reader that the present regimes, designed for application within inquisitorial judicial systems, are inconsistent with common law regimes.Design/methodology/approachThis paper was prepared for an academic workshop.FindingsThe paper suggests that human rights regimes hamper effective sharing of information worldwide and suggests that the adoption of national and international intelligence models offers solutions as human right principles are “built in”. Breaches of human rights by developed countries compound problems. Developed countries need to ensure that their response to incidents post 9/11 needs to be proportionate and within international law. Any perceived deviation from what is objectively and demonstrably fair has the effect of fuelling the propaganda from the other side where both camps vie for men's hearts and minds.Originality/valueThe paper provokes debate about the development of human rights in the UK.
