Since 2001 the U.S. government has been engaged in the delicate
balancing act of seeking to protect the country against terrorism,
both foreign-connected and wholly domestic, while taking into
account a number of constitutional protections that can all too
easily be trammelled in the effort to assure domestic security. At
the same time the development of these policies has created
significant constitutional tension among the three branches of the
federal government, especially when the President vigorously
asserts claims of sweeping power as commander-in-chief in such a
way as to raise warnings about the emergence of an imperial
presidency. Simultaneously, the rule of law has been placed under
stress as the technological prowess of the government has grown.
This book addresses these topics in an accessible manner, covering
the key developments of domestic security law related to terrorism.
Tyll van Geel covers the essential elements of homeland security
law including: branches of government and institutions involved in
counterterrorism law; border control and immigration; surveillance;
the searching of computers and cell phones; the prosecution of
terrorists for any number of crimes, including cyberterrorism;
military detention; the prosecution of unprivileged enemy
belligerents in military commissions; and habeas corpus. The book
is designed to offer a clear guide to current issues in domestic
security in response to terrorism and will be a valuable guide for
concerned citizens as well as undergraduate students studying
domestic politics or national security.
