Subversion and the British Riposte by G. K. Young

A serious examination of political subversion, national security and the difficult balance between state power and democratic freedom.

From Dad's Collection

This copy comes from my dad's personal collection. Dad was an actor and scriptwriter with a genuine interest in politics, government and the institutions that shape public life. His collection remains an important part of Kate's Treasures15, with each book now looking for a new home where it can continue to be read and appreciated.

Written by G. K. Young, Subversion and the British Riposte examines how the British state understood and responded to political subversion and organised opposition.

The book considers national security, surveillance, civil liberties and the reach of government authority, raising questions about how democratic societies defend themselves without weakening the freedoms they claim to protect.

A challenging choice for readers interested in British political history, security policy, government power and the continuing tension between liberty and state authority.

Arya's Approval

A serious study of the tension between security and freedom. Its real interest lies in the questions it raises about how far governments should go when defending the state, and what safeguards are needed when power expands in the name of protection.
