How to Fight Terror While Preserving Liberty

Op-Ed, Baltimore Sun

By Juliette Kayyem, Member of the Board (on leave), Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs

Contrary to popular view, the Patriot Act did not address many of the toughest legal issues Americans face in trying to balance our concern for our freedoms with worries about our safety in the war on terror. What are needed are new rules for a new era.

Preserving Security and Democratic Freedoms in the War on Terrorism

Report

By Philip B. Heymann and Juliette Kayyem, Member of the Board (on leave), Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs

Since 9/11, there has been a lot of talk about the difficult “balancing act” between civil liberties and national security, but few have considered exactly where and how that balance should be struck.

Prize Terror Suspects Are Being Set Free

Op-Ed, Newsday

By Juliette Kayyem, Member of the Board (on leave), Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs

From One Commission to Another: Shut Up

Op-Ed, New York Times

By Juliette Kayyem, Member of the Board (on leave), Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs

There is a growing chorus of criticism against members of the 9/11 commission that they are behaving like partisan players in what was supposed to be an objective review of the terrorist attacks.

Military Justice System a Self-Inflicted Casualty in Terror War

Op-Ed, Christian Science Monitor

By Juliette Kayyem, Member of the Board (on leave), Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs

Whatever Yee may have done wrong in the military's eyes pales in comparison with what the case has done to denigrate the military court system.

First to Arrive: State and Local Responses to Terrorism

Book

By Juliette Kayyem, Member of the Board (on leave), Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs and Robyn Pangi, Former Research Specialist, Executive Session on Domestic Preparedness, International Security Program

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.
