We will assess the distortions of American values and law in the Abu Ghraib, electronic surveillance, and Guantanamo controversies. We will review the political debate over U.S. withdrawal, the rise of Iran as a regional power, and the emerging roles of Afghanistan and Pakistan in the ongoing "long war" against terrorism.
