Seizing Power  reveals how America’s preoccupation with terrorism, warfare and “homeland security” is transforming the nation into an authoritarian system that considers the rights of the individual to be dispensable in favor of the security and power of the state.

It shows how vested interests in the military-security establishment have dramatically expanded their influence and control of foreign and domestic policy, and how they have consumed ever-expanding amounts of financial resources.  Seizing Power  examines the unprecedented erosion of civil liberties and constitutional rights since 9/11, and questions whether citizens will take action to reclaim and protect them. It investigates illegal surveillance, detention, torture and assassination committed and authorized by government officials, and considers the case for war crimes prosecutions.

Seizing Power  explores the little-known story of how the American security state has evolved, and warns us what lies ahead if the country continues on its present course.
