In an age of global terrorism, can the pursuit of security be reconciled with liberaldemocratic values and legal principles? During its "global war on terrorism," the Bushadministration argued that the United States was in a new kind of conflict, one in which peacetimedomestic law was irrelevant and international law inapplicable. From 2001 to 2009, the United Statesthus waged war on terrorism in a "no-law zone."
In Laws,Outlaws, and Terrorists, Gabriella Blum and Philip Heymann reject the argument thattraditional American values embodied in domestic and international law can be ignored in anysustainable effort to keep the United States safe from terrorism. They demonstrate that the costsare great and the benefits slight from separating security and the rule of law. They call forreasoned judgment instead of a wholesale abandonment of American values. They also argue that beingopen to negotiations and seeking to win the moral support of the communities from which theterrorists emerge are noncoercive strategies that must be included in any future efforts to reduceterrorism.
