The Hoover Institution hosted "Targeting Americans: Constitutionality Of The U.S. Drone War" on Wednesday, May 11, 2016 from 5:00pm - 7:00pm.

The Hoover Institution's National Security, Technology, and Law Working Group, along with Hoover's Washington, DC office, discussed the legal debate surrounding drone strikes. Hoover Institution Senior Fellow and Working Group Member Jack Goldsmith interviewed author Jeff Powell on his new book, Targeting Americans: The Constitutionality of the U.S. Drone War. The interview looked at constitutional analysis as a way to draw attention to normative concerns and not necessarily to occlude them.
