Dershowitz explains that the new woke McCarthyism challenges the basic tenets of the classic liberal (in the traditional sense) state: freedom of expression, due process, presumption of innocence, right to counsel, equal application of the law, tolerance, and respect for differing viewpoints. He warns that these bedrock principles are rejected by McCarthyite extremists on both the hard left and the hard right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnalyzing the impact of this new woke McCarthyism through the relentless attempts to \"get\" Trump, the focus on the Bidens, and even its international manifestations relative to anti-Semitism, Israel, and the world, Dershowitz investigates the role of media. He asks whether the US Supreme Court can constrain this growing threat as new woke McCarthyism becomes mainstream Americanism—especially as the current generation of students and young professionals become our political, media, business, educational, religious, and \"influencer\" leaders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46852505174252,"sku":"9781510780361","price":54.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/24825863482725.jpg?v=1759153912","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/war-on-woke-by-alan-dershowitz-9781510780361","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
