Terrorism, the Laws of War, and the Constitution examines three enemy
combatant cases that represent the leading edge of U.S. efforts to
devise legal rules, consistent with American constitutional principles,
for waging the global war on terror. The distinguished contributors
analyze the crucial questions these cases raise about the balance
between national security and civil liberties in wartime and call for a
reexamination of the complex connections between the Constitution and
international law.
