National Security Law (Aspen Casebook)

This book has been adopted for classroom use at a majority of American law schools, as well as military academies and schools, and non-law graduate programs.

Among the features that have made this text the preeminent casebook in the field:

• Cohesive thematic framework--examines law and process for using U.S. force abroad, intelligence gathering, counterterrorism, homeland security and related civil liberties concerns, and access to sensitive government information in a democracy.
• Rich, well-balanced primary materials--including judicial opinions, executive orders, executive branch legal memoranda, statutes, and legislative history.
• Currency and comprehensive coverage--addresses the very latest developments in the detention and trial of terrorist suspects, interrogation, targeted killings, domestic intelligence collection, protection of government secrets, and related issues.
• Topics are organized into numerous shorter chapters, to reflect the way professors actually use the materials in the classroom.
• Annual Supplements--containing the latest developments in this very dynamic field.
