During times of military occupation following an armed conflict it is not uncommon for the victors to implement mass detention programmes aimed both at providing security and bringing criminals to justice. International human rights regimes serve as overarching guidance for these programmes but are subject to broad interpretations, so it is often unclear what regulations or laws should inform day-to-day operations. Military and civilian lawyers may find themselves practising in a foreign jurisdiction for which they have no training or experience, let alone licensure. Law enforcement officers and military police are forced to adapt long-held practices to a new environment. Questions arise as to the rights that detained individuals possess, as these programmes frequently combine rules from different legal systems with no clear authoritative hierarchy. Attention is focused on the treatment of detained individuals with far less emphasis placed on their due process rights or other fundamental legal freedoms. This article examines one such instance, the US detention programme in Iraq, and highlights the numerous ethical and professional conflicts presented when members of one justice system are transplanted into another without proper preparation and background.

在促进民主的同时否认正当程序:伊拉克拘留的故事

在武装冲突后的军事占领时期,胜利者实施旨在提供安全和将罪犯绳之以法的大规模拘留计划并不少见。国际人权制度作为这些计划的总体指导,但受到广泛的解释,因此通常不清楚哪些法规或法律应该为日常运作提供信息。军事和民事律师可能会发现自己在没有受过培训或经验的外国司法管辖区执业,更不用说执照了。执法人员和宪兵被迫将长期坚持的做法适应新环境。关于被拘留者所拥有的权利的问题出现了,因为这些程序经常结合来自不同法律体系的规则,没有明确的权威等级。注意力集中在对被拘留者的待遇上,而对其正当程序权利或其他基本法律自由的重视则要少得多。本文研究了一个这样的例子,即美国在伊拉克的拘留计划,并强调了当一个司法系统的成员在没有适当准备和背景的情况下被移植到另一个司法系统时所出现的大量道德和职业冲突。
