In Time of War
批評家のレビュー
- Audie Award Finalist, Judges' Award: Politics, 2007
"A passionate defense of the Bill of Rights." (Publishers Weekly)
"Addresses an important and emotional national issue, and if we cannot even debate it, then the Constitution is dead. Strongly recommended." (Library Journal)
あらすじ・解説
In 1942, eight Nazi saboteurs were caught on American beaches after one turned the others in. The execution of the saboteurs was challenged in court but eventually upheld in the Supreme Court's ruling in Ex parte Quirin, a decision that has frequently been cited by the George W. Bush administration in support of its declared power to hold "enemy combatants" and try them by military commission.
This use of Ex parte Quirin is clearly on the mind of O'Donnell, a former Supreme Court law clerk, in his narrative of the case, which argues that we should be cautious in applying it as precedence because the process by which it was decided by the Supreme Court was illegitimate.
