The National Security Constitution - Sharing Power After the Iran-Contra Affair (Paper)

In this important new book, Harold Hongju Koh presents the definitive historical and constitutional analysis of the Iran-contra affair, arguing that it was symptomatic of a chronic dysfunction in America's foreign policy process. Combining practical knowledge of government with insights from law, history, and political science, Koh discusses the implications of the Iran-contra scandal for the constitutional conduct of national security policy--our 'National Security Constitution'--and offers prescriptions to improve the way the United States could conduct its foreign affairs into the next century.
