Book Review of Laws of Fear: Beyond the Precautionary PrincipleKeywords: fear , security , Sunstein , World Trade Center , precautionary principle Abstract: September 11 represents for United States, as well as the world, the start of a new era. Even though many countries cope with terrorists in their own soil (such as Spain, United Kingdom even part of Latin America), the World Trade Center attacks signified a large psychological impact on security for citizens of the United States. With the passing of years, Americans saw how their day-to-day style of life substantially changed. Under such a context, Sunstein presents a striking but polemic work entitled Laws of Fear.
