Suggesting that the American detention center at Guantanamo Bay is a moral failure of American Empire, Butler (philosophy, Purdue U.) presents nine papers examining legal and philosophical questions raised by US "enemy combatant" detention policy. Topics addressed include the establishment of Guantanamo and executive power in the United States, constitutional and international law arguments against Guantanamo, the sufficiency of existing international humanitarian law for dealing with the threat of terrorism, the legal failures of Guantanamo military tribunals, Guantanamo as a product of a general American moral malaise, Guantanamo as a symptom of a more wide-ranging legal-philosophic exclusion of the other that is epitomized also by post-9/11 immigration and refugee policy, establishment of a global living wage as a tool to fight the growth of terrorism, and the possible contribution of academic ethics to debates over Guantanamo.
