Entries are supplemented with a carefully selected collection of primary sources that track the evolution of US counterterrorism policies and political debate. These documents not only illuminate major events and turning points in America's fight against terror – both foreign and homegrown – but also help readers understand debates about the effectiveness, morality, and constitutionality of controversial policies that have either been implemented or proposed, from waterboarding to targeted assassination to indefinite incarceration at Guantánamo Bay.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition, this resource shows how political controversies over counterterrorism strategies are spilling over into other areas of American life – from debates about privacy rights, government surveillance, and racially-discriminatory actions and beliefs to arguments about whether US firearms policies are a boon to terrorists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJoseph R.
