Citizens Dissent: Sceurity, Morality, and Leadership in an Age of Terror (New Patriotism Series, 3)

Wendell Berry and David James Duncan in two original essays first published in Orion Magazine present a haunting call to the collective conscience of the citizenry and an urgent challenge to the meaning and workings of a true democracy. Their patriotic dissents expand the context for questions of terror and security and present an enlightened understanding of the threats to and responsibilities of freedom. The volume also features an original postscript by Duncan dated the first day that U.S. forces invaded Iraq.
