Edited by Lucy, A. Daglish, Loren A. Cochran, Nathan Winegar, and Jeffrey F. Addicott

State Open Government Law and Practice in a Post-9/11 World is a guide to changes in
U.S. state public information laws in the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and
changes in national public information laws in countries with elevated terrorist
threats and activity.

Part One, prepared by the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, covers six
important topics in state government law: Critical Infrastructure, Cyber Security,
First Response, Political Structure, Public Health, and Terror Investigation. Each
section alphabetized by state and provides information on legal limits on public
access to government information as related to the War on Terror.

Part Two, compiled by the Center for Terrorism Law, discusses national public
information laws in countries at high risk for terrorist threats: Colombia, France,
Israel, and the United Kingdom. This section explores how other countries handle the
issue of public access to information and allows for comparison and contrast with
U.S. policies.

* Critical Infrastructure
* Cyber Security
* First Response

* Public Health
* Terror Investigations
* State public information law
