The ten chapters in this volume cover the major legal battlefronts of the War on Terror from GuantaÌnamo to drones, with a focus on the constitutional implications of those new tools. The underlying theme is Fiss's concern for the offense done to the U.S. Constitution by the administrative and legislative branches of government in the name of public safety and the refusal of the judiciary to hold the government accountable. A War Like No Other will be an essential intellectual foundation for all concerned about constitutional rights and the law in a new age."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 287-312) and index. 505 0 $a Part I: An unfolding perspective -- In the shadow of war -- The War on Terror and the rule of law -- The perils of minimalism -- Aberrations no more -- Law is everywhere -- Part II: The new normal -- Imprisonment without trial -- Torture and extraordinary rendition -- Criminalizing political activity -- Warrantless wiretapping -- The targeted killing of alleged terrorists. 650 0 $a Terrorism $x Law and legislation $x Law and legislation $z United States. 610 10 $a United States. $t Constitution. 650 0 $a Civil rights $z United States. 650 0 $a War on Terrorism, 2001-2009. 650 7 $a LAW $x Constitutional. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE $x Executive Branch. $x Executive Branch. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE $x Legislative Branch. $x Legislative Branch. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE $x Judicial Branch. $x Judicial Branch. $2 bisacsh 611 27 $a War on Terrorism (2001-2009) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01754980 630 07 $a Constitution (United States) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01356075 650 7 $a Civil rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862627 650 7 $a Terrorism $x Law and legislation. $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01765505 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 610 24 $a United States. 648 7 $a 2001 - 2009 $2 fast 700 1 $a Sutton, Trevor, $d 1981- $e editor. 856 42 $z Additional Information at Google Books $u http://books.google.com/books?vid=isbn9781620970973 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231020014014.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826042248.0 952 $l SOAX911 $d 20160506011341.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EB855BA2134F11E6AEBAE1B2DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IOKInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
