Vor Jahren erklärte Präsident Bush dem Terror den Krieg, heute will Trump Mauern errichten lassen und polarisiert mit Läster-Tweets und "Lügenpresse": Ein Dauerkrieg gegen immer neue Feinde, Kämpfe an verdeckten und offenen Fronten im In- und Ausland, die Propagierung von unerreichbaren Zielen. Doch die USA im Ausnahmezustand ist kein Phänomen der Neuzeit. Der Ausnahmezustand ist die Basis dieser Gesellschaft, der eigentliche "American Way of Life". Extremsituationen bündeln die Aufmerksamkeit und konzentrieren sie auf das unmittelbare - und vor allem auf das eigene! - Überleben. Extremsituationen entlasten vom Alltag, von der Routine, von der Verantwortung fürs Ganze, von Kontinuität. Sie sind das Lebenselixier einer ruhelosen Gesellschaft.

Revolutionary War officer Nathan Hale, one of America's first spies, said, "Any kind of service necessary to the public good becomes honorable by being necessary." A statue of Hale stands outside CIA headquarters, and the agency often cites his statement as one of its guiding principles. But who decides what is necessary for the public good, and is it really true that any kind of service is permissible for the public good? These questions are at the heart of James M. Olson's book, Fair Play: The Moral Dilemmas of Spying.
