Have you read that document called STOA? In it you will find
documented instances where the British military used mark free torture
on IRA prisoners. You might want to download as a text file before it
disappears one day.

AN APPRAISAL OF THE TECHNOLOGY OF POLITICAL CONTROL

ABSTRACT

The objectives of this report are fourfold: (i) to provide Members of
the European Parliament with a guide to recent advances in the
technology of political control; (ii) to identify, analyse and
describe the current state of the art of the most salient
developments; (iii) to present members with an account of current
trends, both in Europe and Worldwide; and (iv) to develop policy
recommendations covering regulatory strategies for their management
and future control.

The report contains seven substantive sections which cover
respectively:

(i) The role and function of the technology of political control;

(ii) Recent trends and innovations (including the implications of
globalisation, militarisation of police equipment, convergence of
control systems deployed worldwide and the implications of increasing
technology and decision drift);

(iii) Developments in surveillance technology (including the emergence
of new forms of local, national and international communications
interceptions networks and the creation of human recognition and
tracking devices);

(iv) Innovations in crowd control weapons (including the evolution of
a 2nd. generation of so called 'less-lethal weapons' from nuclear labs
in the USA).

(v) The emergence of prisoner control as a privatised industry, whilst
state prisons face increasing pressure to substitute technology for
staff in cost cutting exercises and the social and political
implications of replacing policies of rehabilitation with strategies
of human warehousing.

(v) The use of science and technology to devise new efficient
mark-free interrogation and torture technologies and their
proliferation from the US & Europe.

(vi) The implications of vertical and horizontal proliferation of this
technology and the need for an adequate political response by the EU,
to ensure it neither threatens civil liberties in Europe, nor reaches
the hands of tyrants.

The report makes a series of policy recommendations including the need
for appropriate codes of practice. It ends by proposing specific areas
where further research is needed to make such regulatory controls
effective. The report includes a comprehensive bibliographical survey
of some of the most relevant literature.
