Description
"Perhaps nothing has become more evident in the months and years since 9/11 than the tension that exists between the public's access to information and concerns about protecting national security. This tension raises fundamental questions about how and to what extent national security secrecy is consistent with Amerian notions of democracy; how institutions governing determinations about secrecy and disclosure should be designed; and what the proper role of Congress, the courts, the public, and the media is in relation to government assertions of secrecy. The articles in this anthology will provide the reader a window into the current shape of the eternal push-and-pull between secrecy and access to information in a democracy." --
