Terrorist attacks and nuclear proliferation; strategies for overlapping dangers.
As a sequel to September 11, Terrorist Attacks, and U.S. Foreign Policy and American Hegemony: Preventive War, Iraq, and Imposing Democracy, this volume continues to engage with the political, military, moral, ethical, and constitutional repercussions of the American "Global War on Terror." Caraley (editor, Political Science Quarterly) and Kando (vice president for operations, Academy of Political Science) present 12 essays that examine issues of deterrence of non-state terrorist attacks and means of combating terrorist financing; explore debates over the North Korean and Iranian nuclear programs; and analyze issues concerning civilian war deaths, torture, and the detention and trial of "enemy combatants."
