First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.

  • U.S. Role in the World: Background and Issues for Congress
    U.S. Role in the World: Background and Issues for Congress Updated December 19, 2019 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R44891 U.S. Role in the World: Background and Issues for Congress Summary The U.S. role in the world refers to the overall character, purpose, or direction of U.S. participation in international affairs and the country’s overall relationship to the rest of the world. The U.S. role in the world can be viewed as establishing the overall context or framework for U.S. policymakers for developing, implementing, and measuring the success of U.S. policies and actions on specific international issues, and for foreign countries or other observers for interpreting and understanding U.S. actions on the world stage. While descriptions of the U.S. role in the world since the end of World War II vary in their specifics, it can be described in general terms as consisting of four key elements: global leadership; defense and promotion of the liberal international order; defense and promotion of freedom, democracy, and human rights; and prevention of the emergence of regional hegemons in Eurasia. The issue for Congress is whether the U.S. role in the world is changing, and if so, what implications this might have for the United States and the world. A change in the U.S. role could have significant and even profound effects on U.S. security, freedom, and prosperity. It could significantly affect U.S. policy in areas such as relations with allies and other countries, defense plans and programs, trade and international finance, foreign assistance, and human rights.

  • How the War on Crime Helped Make the War on Terror Possible James Forman, Jr.*
    EXPORTING HARSHNESS: HOW THE WAR ON CRIME HELPED MAKE THE WAR ON TERROR POSSIBLE JAMES FORMAN, JR.* I. INTRODUCTION During the Bush administration, opponents of the prosecution of the war on terror routinely denounced it as a betrayal of American values. The narrative went like this: the United States has a long-standing commitment to human rights and due process, reflected in its domestic criminal justice system's expansive protections, but after September 11, 2001, President Bush, Vice President Cheney, Defense Secretary Rumsfeld, and their allies dishonored this tradition. Consider the argument of Neal Katyal, the lead civilian lawyer for Salim Hamdan, Osama bin Laden's driver. Katyal describes meeting his client for the first time, when Hamdan asked him, "Why are you doing this?" Katyal responded: The reason that I am here is that my parents came to America with eight dollars in their pocket.... They came to America for a simple reason: they could land on its shores and they'd be treated fairly and their children would be treated fairly. And when the president issued this military order, which said, "If you're one of them, if you're a green card holder"-as my parents were-"or if you're a foreigner ... you get the beat-up Chevy version of Justice. You get sent to Guantanamo. But if you're an American citizen, accused of the most heinous crime imaginable, the detonation of a weapon of mass destruction, you get the Gold Standard. You get the American Civilian Trial." I told him that's why I was so offended.

  • Terrorizing Academia
    433 Terrorizing Academia Joseph Margulies and Hope Metcalf I. Introduction In an observation more often repeated than defended, we are told that the attacks of September 11 “changed everything.” Whatever merit there is in this notion, it is certainly true that 9/11—and in particular the legal response set in motion by the administration of President George W. Bush—left its mark on the academy. Nine years after 9/11, it is time to step back and assess these developments and to offer thoughts on their meaning. In Part II of this essay, we analyze the post-9/11 scholarship produced by this “emergency” framing. We argue that legal scholars writing in the aftermath of 9/11 generally fell into one of three groups: unilateralists, interventionists, and proceduralists. Unilateralists argued in favor of tilting the allocation of government power toward the executive because the state’s interest in survival is superior to any individual liberty interest, and because the executive is best able to understand and address threats to the state. Interventionists, by contrast, argued in favor of restraining the executive (principally through the judiciary) precisely to prevent the erosion of civil liberties. Proceduralists took a middle road, Joseph Margulies is a Clinical Professor, Northwestern University School of Law. He was counsel of record for the petitioners in Rasul v. Bush and Munaf v. Geren. He now is counsel of record for Abu Zubaydah, for whose torture (termed harsh interrogation by some) Bush Administration officials John Yoo and Jay Bybee wrote authorizing legal opinions. Earlier versions of this paper were presented at workshops at the American Bar Foundation and the 2010 Law and Society Association Conference in Chicago.

CONSTRUCTION OF THE RACIST REPUBLICAN by BARBARA LANE Under the Direction of John McMillian Abstract Minorities have gained more civil rights with the cooperation of both major political parties in the United States, yet the actions of the Republican Party are often conflated with racism. This is partially the result of clashes in ideological visions, which explain the different political positions of partisans. However, during his 1980 run for the White House, a concerted effort was made to tie Ronald Reagan to racism, as he was accused of pandering to white Southerners. Therefore, this thesis also focuses on “Southern strategies” used by both the Republican and Democratic parties to exploit race, which have spilled into the new millennium.

  • COVID-19 and the Foreign Policy Perceptions of US Public and Elites
    COVID-19 and the Foreign Policy Perceptions of US Public and Elites © 2020 IAI by Barbara Keys ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated American public and elite polarisation on foreign policy issues. Public opinion ISSN 2610-9603 | ISBN 978-88-9368-158-2 polls show that Republicans prefer to go it alone and fear China, international terrorism, and immigration. Democrats see COVID-19 and climate change as the biggest international problems, and they prefer multilateral solutions. This divide reflects divergences in elite opinion. Conservatives remain wedded to US military primacy, and the pandemic has increased their appetite for confronting China. Liberal internationalists, while acknowledging weaknesses in the post- 1945 order and its unsuitability for managing contemporary challenges, seek various adaptations without abandoning US global leadership. Faced with immense challenges and a toxic political environment, President Joe Biden – very much a 20th century-style politician – may well resurrect old aims rather than embracing new approaches for the new complexities of 21st century world.

  • Foiled Plots
    T Ordinary Measures, Extraordinary Results: R An Assessment of Foiled Plots Since 9/11 Germain Difo EPO May 2010 Executive Summary R series of recent reports has identified several terrorist plots that have been “foiled” since 9/11.1 The reports highlight these cases as evidence that post- 9/11 counterterrorism measures have been instrumental in protecting the AUnited States against the threat of terrorism. These measures include using the recently renewed USA PATRIOT Act and amendments to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), pursuing the ongoing war in Afghanistan, and detaining terror suspects in the U.S. military facility at Guantánamo Bay. Commentators have also suggested that waterboarding and other torture methods used against terrorism suspects in U.S. custody are necessary and effective counterterrorism tools that have been critical in thwarting attacks and keeping Americans safe.2 These individuals recommend that 1 Jena Baker McNeill and James Jay Carafano, “Terrorist Watch: 23 Plots Foiled Since 9/11,” The Heritage Foundation, July 2, 2009. http://www.heritage.org/Research/HomelandSecurity/ upload/bg_2294-3.pdf (accessed December 1, 2009); Jena Baker McNeill, “26 Foiled Terror Plots Show Success of Information Sharing,” September 29, 2009. http://www.heritage.org/ Research/HomelandSecurity/wm2634.cfm; Jena Baker McNeill and Jessica Zuckerman, “Another Terror Plot Foiled: 27 Since 9/11,” The Heritage Foundation, October 21, 2009. http:// www.heritage.org/Research/HomelandSecurity/wm2663a.cfm; Jena Baker McNeill, “Detroit Terror Plot Makes 28 Plots Foiled Since 9/11,” The Heritage Foundation, December 26, 2009. http://www.heritage.org/Research/homelandsecurity/wm2741.cfm. 2 Marc A.
