Scholarly Essay from the year 2007 in the subject Law - Comparative
Legal Systems, Comparative Law, grade: C, National University of
Juridical Sciences (National University of Juridical Sciences), 15
entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Against
the backdrop of the horrendous happenings of 11th September,2001
the American Congress, cloaked in fear capitulated to the Bush
administration's demand for a new anti-terror law by overlooking
the tumultuous objections from the civil liberties organization
from both ends of the political spectrum. The Congress approved the
Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools
Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act, which is better
known by its acronym the U.S.A PATRIOT ACT with an overwhelming
majority of 356 votes to 66 in the House and 98 votes to one in the
U.S Senate1. In the process the Congress brushed aside a more
promising anti-terrorism bill that the House Judiciary Committee
had unanimously approved, that would have addressed a number of
civil liberties concerns. The complex and far reaching legislation
was drafted hastily and without being subjected to much debates and
discussion or conferences or committee reports that any other
significant act would undergo was signed and made a law by the
president of the United States, George W. Bush on 26th October
2001. This essay deals with the implications of U.S.A. patriot act
on human rights.
