Griffin rethinks the long-running debate over the "imperial presidency" and concludes that the eighteenth-century Constitution is inadequate to the challenges of a post-9/11 world. The Constitution requires the consent of Congress before the United States can go to war. Truman's decision to fight in Korea without gaining that consent was unconstitutional, says Griffin, but the acquiescence of Congress and the American people created a precedent for presidents to claim autonomy in this arena ever since. The unthinking extension of presidential leadership in foreign affairs to a point where presidents unilaterally decide when to go to war, Griffin argues, has destabilized our constitutional order and deranged our foreign policy. Long Wars and the Constitution demonstrates the unexpected connections between presidential war power and the constitutional crises that have plagued American politics. Contemporary presidents are caught in a dilemma. On the one hand are the responsibilities handed over to them by a dangerous world, and on the other is an incapacity for sound decision making in the absence of interbranch deliberation. President Obama's continuation of many Bush administration policies in the long war against terrorism is only the latest in a chain of difficulties resulting from the imbalances introduced by the post-1945 constitutional order. Griffin argues for beginning a cycle of accountability in which Congress would play a meaningful role in decisions for war, while recognizing the realities of twenty-first century diplomacy. 606 $aWar and emergency powers$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1945-1989 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1989- 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWar and emergency powers 676 $a342.73/0412 700 $aGriffin$b Stephen M.$f1957-$01032612 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462844603321 996 $aLong wars and the constitution$92450580 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03514nam 2200589 a 450 001 9910790575903321 005 20230803021524.0 010 $a0-8130-4710-2 010 $a0-8130-4625-4 010 $a0-8130-4500-2 035 $a(CKB)2550000001113266 035 $a(EBL)1122594 035 $a(OCoLC)827207337 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000833207 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11447611 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000833207 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10935304 035 $a(PQKB)11567874 035 $a(StDuBDS)EDZ0000155648 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1122594 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse25855 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1122594 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10655705 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL513131 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000001113266 100 $a20120815d2013 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aFernando Alonso$b[electronic resource] $ethe father of Cuban ballet /$fToba Singer 210 $aGainesville $cUniversity Press of Florida$dc2013 215 $a1 online resource (264 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a0-8130-4402-2 311 $a1-299-81880-3 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aPart I: Antes (before) -- 1.
