- The UK’s Prevent policy and operations are never far from media headlines. By engaging in this important area of public policy the book offers an original and well research insight into the policy formation of Prevent, its key terms and working practices. The research is based on exhaustive interviews and focus groups with senior government officials and ministers, frontline staff, and members of Muslim communities. In the policy analysis the book ventures further than previously published books, offering a deep engagement with policy in a counterterrorism context and explains, analyses, and assesses the significant faces of the Prevent development.
