Synopsis
Foreword by Howard Zinn Just six weeks after 11 September, a jittery Congress overwhelmingly approved the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act, better known as The USA PATRIOT Act.

Synopsis
New Anti-Terrorist Laws have Far-Reaching Consequences for the Civil Liberties of All; Just six weeks after 11 September, a jittery US Congress - exiled from their anthrax-contaminated offices and fearing that more terrorist assaults were soon to come - overwhelmingly approved the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act, better known as The USA Patriot Act. This hastily drafted and far-reaching legislation, despite vigorous objections from civil liberties organisations on both ends of the political spectrum, was passed with virtually no public hearing or debate and was accompanied by neither a conference nor a committee report. In this concise and lucid analysis, Chang explains how the new law endows the executive branch with vast unchecked powers, erodes civil liberties and privacy, and severely impacts immigration.
