Short description:
National Security, Leaks and Freedom of the Press draws on the expertise of an extraordinary group of national security officials, journalists and academics to explore the issue first posed half-a-century ago in the Pentagon Papers decision: To what extent does the First Amendment give government employees, journalists and other entities a First Amendment right to disclose, to obtain or to publish classified information relating to the national security of the United States? The authors in this volume offer deeply informed, thoughtful, and often surprising proposals for how to cope with these challenges in a twenty-first century democracy.
MoreLong description:
Written by a group of the nation's leading constitutional scholars, a deeply informed, thoughtful, and often surprising examination of who has First Amendment rights to disclose, to obtain, or to publish classified information relating to the national security of the United States.
One of the most vexing and perennial questions facing any democracy is how to balance the government's legitimate need to conduct its operations-especially those related to protecting the national security-in secret, with the public's right and responsibility to know what its government is doing. There is no easy answer to this issue, and different nations embrace different solutions. In the United States, at the constitutional level, the answer begins exactly half a century ago with the Supreme Court's landmark 1971 decision in the Pentagon Papers case. The final decision, though, left many important questions unresolved. Moreover, the issue of leaks and secrecy has cropped up repeatedly since, most recently in the Edward Snowden and Chelsea Manning cases. In National Security, Leaks and Freedom of the Press , two of America's leading First Amendment scholars, Lee C. Bollinger and Geoffrey R. Stone, have gathered a group of the nation's leading constitutional scholars-including John Brennan, Eric Holder, Cass R. Sunstein, and Michael Morell, among many others-to delve into important dimensions of the current system, to explain how we should think about them, and to offer as many solutions as possible.
