CHS Director Kurt Johnson authored chapter 20 entitled The Use of the Military in the Homeland. One of the most important and sensitive concerns of our time is how to properly use the military in the homeland, especially in a representative democracy such as the United States. We are engaged in an ongoing struggle to strike the right balance between maintaining national security and protecting civil liberties against a backdrop of suspicion fueled by perceived and actual abuses of the past, both in our country and in those from which our founders, early settlers, and later immigrants all emigrated.
The book is published by the American Bar Association (ABA) and Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism.
