Description: "This is one of the most acute and lucid analyses of the moral and institutional challenges posted for liberal democratic societies by mega-terrorism. Alison Brysk, Gershon Shafir, and a group of eminent scholars address, with practical understanding and moral insight, the question of how to prevent our reasonable fears for our safety from turning into a moral panic that is incompatible with the effective defense of human rights."--Tom Farer, University of Denver, former President of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights
