Understanding Your Right to Privacy

Kathy Furgang,Frank Gatta

In a world where full body scans are permitted before someone boards an aircraft, it is no wonder people are concerned with the issue of privacy rights. The issue of privacy has always been a complex one, and the events of September 11, 2001 made it that much more complicated. Privacy rights had to be weighed against the importance of protecting Americans’ lives and monitoring terrorist activity. This stirring tome covers the roots of privacy in America, landmark Supreme Court cases that settled privacy rights issues, and privacy and law enforcement (police brutality, racial profiling, police searches, and government surveillance). One chapter is devoted to the right of privacy for students, including privacy and the Internet. The Preamble to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are printed in the back matter.
