Summary:
This book bases its title on the UK Home Office motto: 'Building a Safe, Just and Tolerant Society'. But are these objectives always compatible - and might they need to be placed in order of priority? Is public safety a prior requisite for tolerance - and how integral to justice are tolerance and safety? To build and sustain a society that is tolerant safe and respects other fundamental principles is a key challenge of the modern era: and the theme of this book. From the authors of the acclaimed Police Leadership in the 21st Century (Waterside Press, 2003). With a Foreword by Conor Gearty plus other expert contributions.
