"Imbalance of Powers":  New Lawyers Committee for Human Rights
Publication

Some of the changes in U.S. law and security policy since September 11
have led to an erosion of basic human rights protections in the United
States. In the publications listed below, the Lawyers Committee has
attempted to catalogue and analyze the impacts on civil liberties of the
United States' approach to the "War on Terrorism." A Year of Loss looks
at the year immediately following the attacks while Imbalance of Powers
focuses on the 6 month period between September 11, 2002 and March 11,
2003.
