%X <p> <i>New Labour's domestic and foreign policy have been driven by a complex and contradictory precautionary logic. Fear management appears to have replaced coherent principles in the development of some areas of policy. The preoccupation with fear and anxiety has provided a rationale for the suspension of liberty and the adoption of measures that Western democracies have only usually seen in times of war. Fear‐based policy has also created a more exclusivist, segmented society.</i> </p><p />
