"Why our democratic values shouldn't be sacrificed on the altar of national security"-- Provided by publisher.In the wake of major terrorist attacks, calls for ever more draconian policies to prevent further outrages are common. Such responses raise the pressing question: is it possible to effectively fight terrorism while respecting democratic values of equality and trust? Examining recent examples of terrorist atrocities -- including the murder of Muslims in New Zealand and Jews in Pittsburgh -- Patti Tamara Lenard considers how democracies should tackle terrorism within the constraints imposed by democratic principles. She contends that the goal of security should be to keep all citizens equally secure in the face of terrorist threats. Critiquing existing policies, from exile to racial profiling, she outlines what ethical counter-terrorism policies should look like, arguing for strategies that respect equality and maintain trust among diverse communities in democratic states
