Preemption : a knife that cuts both ways / Alan M Dershowitz - New York: W W Norton, 2006
In countering terrorism and other serious threats states are increasingly using preventive and preemptive measures. This book looks at the history of preventive measures in the Anglo American legal systems; at preventive war; counterterrorism, at the Bush Doctrine on the preemptive attack on Iraq, and asks whether such an attack on Iran's nuclear programme would be justified. Concludes with a discussion of the jurisprudence of prevention and preemption.
