What is Chomsky and Dershowitz : on endless war and the end of civil liberties about?

Through The Lens Of A Careful Assessment Of The Political Views Of Mit's Noam Chomsky And Harvard's Alan Dershowitz--the Two Protagonists Of A Cambridge-based Feud Over The Past Forty Years--author Howard Friel Chronicles An American Intellectual History From The U.s. War In Vietnam In The 1960s To The Contemporary Debate About The Israel-palestine Conflict. Major Findings Reveal The Consistency Of Chomsky's Principled Support Of International Law, Human Rights, And Civil Liberties, And A Reversal By Dershowitz From Support In The 1960s To Opposition Of Those Legal Standards Today. Whereas Chomsky Has Opposed Aggressive War (including By The United States And Israel) Throughout His Academic Career, Dershowitz Moved From Opposing The War In Vietnam To Supporting The U.s.-led War On Terrorism, Which Includes Preventive Wars, Preemptive Attacks, Armed Reprisals, And Targeted Extrajudicial Killings. Although Dershowitz Once Opposed The Nixon Administration's Assault On Civil Liberties, He Now Writes Favorably About A Jurisprudence Of The Preventive State In The United States, Which Would Likely Legalize Preventive Surveillance, Preventive Interrogations, And Preventive Detentions.
