Limiting Secrecy under the Patriot Act

Op-Ed, Boston Globe

By Juliette Kayyem, Lecturer in Public Policy

In the next week or so, Congress is expected to vote on a bill to renew certain expiring sections of the Patriot Act. The debate over this law is a crucial conversation for our country and for how we protect both the security and privacy of a free citizenry.

A War by Any Other Name

Op-Ed, Los Angeles Times

By Juliette Kayyem, Lecturer in Public Policy

It was President Bush himself who insisted on calling it a global war on terror. He wanted to indicate that this was not just another piddling law enforcement action, but an all-out, full-scale military response to Sept. 11 that would involve U.S. troops around the globe. But now, apparently, a decision has been made that the language of war isn't working for him anymore. So in recent days, the "global war on terror" has been shelved in favor of the "global struggle against violent extremism."

"Tortured Arguments: The Rules Are for Us, Not the Terrorists"

Op-Ed, Washington Post, Sunday Outlook

By Juliette Kayyem, Lecturer in Public Policy

Like every other country, the United States has, in the name of security, made mistakes that we admit only later. What separates us from those regimes we abhor isn't that we never act cruelly. It's that we reject, rather than defend, our departures from our ideals and we actively seek to prevent such abuses from happening again.

First to Arrive: State and Local Responses to Terrorism

Book

By Robyn Pangi, Former Research Specialist, Executive Session on Domestic Preparedness, International Security Program and Juliette Kayyem, Lecturer in Public Policy

Since September 11, 2001, the United States has been preoccupied by the federal role in preparedness against terror attacks and by ways to provide a quick fix through organizational overhauls. First to Arrive argues that the best way for America to prepare for terrorism is to listen to people in the field; those working on the ground can guide decisions at the top.
