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

Citizens Dissent: Sceurity, Morality, and Leadership in an Age of Terror (New Patriotism Series, 3) by Wendell Berry. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780913098622.

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.
