Presidents' Secrets
Author: Mary Graham
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300223749
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
Ever since the nation's most important secret meeting--the Constitutional Convention--presidents have struggled to balance open, accountable government with necessary secrecy in military affairs and negotiations. For the first one hundred and twenty years, a culture of open government persisted, but new threats and technology have long since shattered the old bargains. Today, presidents neither protect vital information nor provide the open debate Americans expect.
