Jeremy Waldron has been a challenging and influential voice in the
moral, political and legal debates surrounding the response to
terrorism since 9/11. His contributions have spanned the major
controversies of the War on Terror - including the morality and
legality of torture, whether security can be 'balanced' with
liberty, and the relationship between public safety and individual
rights. He has also tackled underlying questions essential to
understanding the practical debates - including what terrorism is,
and what a right to security would entail. This volume collects all
Waldron's work on these issues, including six published essays and
two previously unpublished essays. It also includes a new
introduction in which Waldron presents an overview of his
contribution, and looks at the problems currently facing the Obama
administration and the UK Government in dealing with the legacy of
the Bush White House. The volume will be essential reading for all
those engaged with contemporary politics, security law, and the
continuing struggle for an ethical response to terrorism.
