| Title | Privacy in the Preventive State |
| Summary | The most frequently articulated concern in the war on terror has been the increasing level of surveillance of the population under the rhetoric of prevention of terrorist attacks. Often surveillance is thought to bring the benefits of security. Technology has come to the forefront in defining perceptions and modes of government. I argue that violations of privacy in the preventive paradigm in which the liberal constitutional states of the Federal Republic of Germany and the United States operate since 9/11should be considered not as individual concerns but as systemic harms to democracy. Finally, a holistic reconsideration of privacy is implicit in the rule of law. |
