SCHULHOFER LIBERTY & NATIONAL SECURITY PROJECT BRENNAN CENTER FOR JUSTICE AT NYU SCHOOL OF LAW www.brennancenter.org We are on strange ground…. But it is the essence of our tradition for judges, when they stand at the end of the marked way, to go forward with caution keeping sight, so far as they are able, upon the great landmarks left behind and the direction they point ahead. If…we are now to enter upon a new era of law in the world, it becomes more important than ever before for the nations creating that system to observe their greatest traditions of administering justice, including this one, both in their own judging and in their new creation. Justice Wiley B. Rutledge dissenting opinion In re Yamashita, 327 U.S. 1, 43 (1946) The Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law unites thinkers and advocates in pursuit of a vision of inclusive and effective democracy. Our mission is to develop and implement an innovative, nonpartisan agenda of scholarship, public education, and legal action that promotes equality and human dignity, while safeguarding fundamental freedoms. The Brennan Center’s Liberty & National Security Project seeks to promote thoughtful and informed discussion of how to address the threat of terrorism within our constitutional framework. Our efforts are rooted in the belief that accountability, transparency, and checks and balances are vital not only to the protection of civil liberties, but also to developing effective and sustainable strategies for fighting terrorism.

  • In Pursuit of Justice: Prosecuting Terrorism Cases in the Federal Courts
    In Pursuit of Justice Prosecuting Terrorism Cases in the Federal Courts Richard B. Zabel James J. Benjamin, Jr. May 2008 gfhgfh In Pursuit of Justice Prosecuting Terrorism Cases in the Federal Courts A White Paper Richard B. Zabel James J. Benjamin, Jr. May 2008 About Us Human Rights First believes that building respect for human rights and the rule of law will help ensure the dignity to which every individual is entitled and will stem tyranny, extremism, intolerance, and violence. Human Rights First protects people at risk: refugees who flee persecution, victims of crimes against humanity or other mass human rights violations, victims of discrimination, those whose rights are eroded in the name of national security, and human rights advocates who are targeted for defending the rights of others. These groups are often the first victims of societal instability and breakdown; their treatment is a harbinger of wider-scale repression. Human Rights First works to prevent violations against these groups and to seek justice and accountability for violations against them. Human Rights First is practical and effective. We advocate for change at the highest levels of national and international policymaking. We seek justice through the courts. We raise awareness and understanding through the media. We build coalitions among those with divergent views. And we mobilize people to act. Human Rights First is a non-profit, nonpartisan international human rights organization based in New York and Washington D.C. To maintain our independence, we accept no government funding. This report is available for free online at www.humanrightsfirst.org © 2008 Human Rights First.
