Terrorism and the Constitution: Sacrificing Civil Liberties In

Terrorism and the Constitution: Sacrificing Civil Liberties In The Name Of National Security
- Used Book in Good Condition
Tracing the history of government intrusions on Constitutional rights in response to threats from abroad, Cole and Dempsey warn that a society in which civil liberties are sacrificed in the name of national security is in fact less secure than one in which they are upheld.
A new chapter includes a discussion of domestic spying, preventive detention, the many court challenges to postâ€“9/11 abuses, implementation of the PATRIOT ACT, and efforts to reestablish the checks and balances left behind in the rush to strengthen governmental powers.
