THE VIEW FROM 30,000 FEET:
A SURVEY OF NATIONAL SECURITY LAW
Whether involving separation of powers, drone strikes, Guantanamo,
FISA warrants, or the International Criminal Court, national security law is an
extremely complex and evolving area of law. This full-day seminar introduces
this topic from various perspectives, including the U.S. and legal architecture
surrounding principles of self-defense, the laws of armed conflict, law enforcement
approaches, intelligence collection, detention issues, war crimes tribunals, and
cybersecurity. As the inaugural program of the Center for National Security
and Human Rights Law, this seminar sets the stage for future programming
in this increasingly relevant field, including lectures, classes, and scholarship.

John will explore jus ad bellum, the principles by
which nations may resort to armed conflict under
international law, as well as the manner in which
national security responsibilities are divided among
the three branches of the U.S. government. He

ability to initiate and sustain hostilities abroad.

Adam Weber
Professor, Chicago-Kent College of Law, and Former

Adam will provide an overview of the laws of armed

and international humanitarian law. Drawing on his
real-world experience as a war crimes prosecutor,
Adam will discuss the fundamental elements
of LOAC, such as military necessity, distinction,
proportionality, and humanity, and will address
the key sources of those elements, including the
Hague Convention, the Geneva Conventions and
related Protocols, and other relevant agreements.

as applied to the cyber domain and navigate self-
defense, preemption, and sub-use of force contexts.

2:30-3:30
Interrogation and Detention Operations
Jack Dever
Head of AML/Sanctions, Wholesale Banking,

Deprivation of liberty and subsequent interrogation

international humanitarian law. In this presentation,
Jack will focus on unique aspects of this law, as well
as the challenges encountered by armed forces when
conducting interrogation and detention operations.

National Security Criminal Law
Barry Jonas
Assistant United States Attorney, US Attorney’s Office

Through the use of actual case studies, Barry will
discuss various elements of national security criminal
law. These will include an overview of commonly
prosecuted crimes, including espionage and the
material support for terrorism laws, as well as
methods by which those prosecutions are developed,
such as through the use of the Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act (FISA) and the Classified Information
Procedures Act (CIPA). He also will address evolving
issues, such as the debate over formally designating
domestic groups as terrorist organizations.
