Description: Its critics have cast the US Patriot Act as the greatest threat to civil liberties since the Alien and Sedition Acts or the suspension of habeas corpus during the Civil War.
Synopsis: In this short book, Etzioni, the well-known and respected public intellectual and communitarian thinker, charts a middle course, or third way 'between those who are committed to shore up our liberties but blind to the needs of public security, as well as those who never met a right they are not willing to curtail to give authorities an even freer hand.' This book will prove a useful guide for citizens looking for a thought provoking, well-reasoned and sober analysis of one of the hot button issues of our time.
