Abstract: Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, we have been "at war" with Al Qaeda, Afghanistan, Iraq, and terrorism generally. President Bush used the word "war" 33 times when he presented a "wartime" budget to the Congress, and he has asserted the broad executive powers that traditionally surround a President in times of grave emergency. Philip Heymann's new book, Terrorism, Freedom, and Security: Winning Without War, analyzes whether it is useful to use the word "war" either to describe the dangers our nation faces from terrorism or to help our nation protect itself from those dangers.
