Liberty in the Age of Terror: A Defence of Civil Liberties and Enlightenment Values

Liberty in the Age of Terror: A Defence of Civil Liberties and Enlightenment Values

World-renowned philosopher A.C. Grayling argues that our societies are under attack – not just from the threat of terrorism, but from our governments’ attempts to fight that threat by reducing freedom in our own societies. He cites as evidence CCTV surveillance, increasing invasion of privacy, Abu Ghraib, rendition, Guantanamo. Grayling lucidly sets out what is at risk, engages with the arguments for and against, and finally proposes a different way to respond, making defending the civil liberties on which western society is founded the cornerstone for defeating terrorism.
