FREEDOM FOR THE THOUGHT THAT WE HATE: A
Biography of the First Amendment by Anthony Lewis. . . KIRKUS
REVIEWS - A superb history of the First Amendment and the
body of law that has followed it. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist
and longtime Supreme Court observer Lewis (Make No Law: The Sullivan
Case and the First Amendment, 1991, etc.), now retired from the
New York Times, explains in the clearest of language how freedom
of expression evolved in this country. Surprisingly, it was only
in 1919 that a Supreme Court justice (Oliver Wendell Holmes)
wrote that the First Amendment protected speech and publication,
and that was in a dissent-not until 1931 did a majority on the
Court begin enforcing the constitutional guarantee of freedom
of speech. Drawing examples from many cases, Lewis demonstrates
that interpretations of the First Amendment shifted over time
as the Supreme Court, and the public, began to recognize that
freedom of expression was one of America's basic values. He considers
the ways in which freedom can conflict with such other values
as the right to privacy, protection from hate speech, the safeguarding
of national security and the right to a fair trial (i.e., one
uncompromised by prejudicial press coverage).
BEYOND THE LAW, Jordan J Paust : This
book provides a detailed exposition of violations of international
law authorized and abetted by secret memos, authorizations, and
orders of the Bush administration. In particular, it describes
why several executive claims were in error, what illegal authorizations
were given, what illegal interrogation tactics were approved,
and what illegal transfers and secret detentions occurred. It
provides the most thorough documentation of cases demonstrating
that the president is bound by the laws of war; that decisions
to detain persons, decide their status, and mistreat them are
subject to judicial review during the war; and that the commander-in-chief
power is subject to restraints by Congress.
