Inscribed by the primary author on the half-title page. The inscription reads 9.25.07 For Tom Timm--Thanks for your support of the role of law. David Cole.…Corners of many pages creased but not marks to text noted. David D. Cole is the National Legal Director of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Before joining the ACLU in July 2016, Cole was the Hon. George J. Mitchell Professor in Law and Public Policy at the Georgetown University Law Center from March 2014 through December 2016. He has published in various legal fields including constitutional law, national security, criminal justice, civil rights, and law and literature. Cole has litigated several significant First Amendment cases in the Supreme Court of the United States, as well a number of influential cases concerning civil rights and national security. He is also a legal correspondent to several mainstream media outlets and publications. Professor Jules Lobel is the Bessie McKee Walthour Endowed Chair at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law. Lobel co-authored the award winning book, Less Safe, Less Free: Why America is Losing the War on Terror (2007) with Professor David Cole, which won the first Roy C. Palmer Civil Liberties Prize for exemplary scholarship exploring the tension between civil liberties and national security. He is also the author of, Success without Victory: Lost Legal Battles and the Long Road to Justice in America (2003), and editor of several books on Civil Rights Litigation as well as the U.S. Constitution. A cogent critique of the new "preventive paradigm" in counterterrorism policy by two of the nation's leading legal scholars. "If we wait for threats to fully materialize, we will have waited too long."--President George W. Bush, defending the National Security Strategy doctrine "preemptive war," Commencement Speech at West Point, June 1, 2002. In Steven Spielberg's science fiction thriller Minority Report, the Justice Department uses psychic visionaries to predict and prevent future crimes. President Bush has no psychic visionaries, but in fighting the war on terrorism his administration has nonetheless adopted a sweeping new "preemptive" strategy, which turns on the ability to predict the future. At home and abroad, the administration has cut corners on fundamental commitments of the rule of law in the name of preventing future attacks--from "waterboarding" detainees, to disappearing suspects into secret CIA prisons, to attacking Iraq against the wishes of the UN Security Council and most of the world when it posed no imminent threat of attacking us. In this brilliantly conceived critique, two of the country's preeminent constitutional scholars argue that the great irony is that these sacrifices in the rule of law, adopted in the name of prevention, have in fact made us more susceptible to future terrorist attacks. They conclusively debunk the administration's claim that it is winning the war on terror and offer an alternative strategy in which the rule of law is an asset, not an obstacle, in the struggle to keep us both safe and free. Derived from a Kirkus review: Call it speculation on disaster, the administration's policy of guessing where future threats lie and then impinging, imprisoning, invading. That policy, argue Cole and Lobel, is a failure. "There is nothing wrong with prevention as an objective," the authors assert; prevention is a goal of public safety as much as of public health. Yet the administration's "preventive paradigm" attacks the rule of law writ large, and specifically commitments to equality, transparency, due process, checks and balances, basic human rights and other operational principles and ideals. "Bush's preventive paradigm," Cole and Lobel maintain, "has violated each of these commitments, imposing double standards on the most vulnerable, operating in secret, denying fair trials, imposing guilt by association, intentionally obscuring clear rules, asserting unchecked unilateral power, and violating universal prohibitions on torture, disappearance, and the like." In part, this has been effected by an insistence that the state knows best, that the enemies are non-citizens and that secrecy is the only possible stance against terrorâ"though when these claims are examined, by the authors' account, each turns out to be flawed. And whereas the putative goal is to bring terrorist suspects to justice, the practice has been "to place suspects beyond the reach of any law that might protect them" by "rendering" them to such places as Syria and tucking them away in Gitmo. The authors go on to argue that the preventive paradigm as applied in such places has failed, since coerced information is tainted, just as the preventive paradigm as applied to nations such as Iraq has soundly failed. And it certainly has not kept would-be rogue states from acquiring nuclear weapons, nor terrorist organizations from attracting recruits. What is to be done? Treat the rule of law "as an asset, not an obstacle," the authors conclude. A resounding argument contra administration policy. Rhoda Baer (Author Cole photograph) and Robert Dal (illustratore).
