Many Americans believe that foreign military intervention is central to protecting our domestic freedoms. But Christopher J. Coyne and Abigail R. Hall urge engaged citizens to think again. Overseas, our government takes actions in the name of defense that would not be permissible within national borders. Emboldened by the relative weakness of governance abroad, the U.S. government is able to experiment with a broader range of social controls. Under certain conditions, these policies, tactics, and technologies are then reimported to America, changing the national landscape and increasing the extent to which we live in a police state. Coyne and Hall examine this patternwhich they dub the boomerang effectconsidering a variety of rich cases that include the rise of state surveillance, the militarization of domestic law enforcement, the expanding use of drones, and torture in U.S. prisons. Synthesizing research and applying an economic lens, they develop a generalizable theory to predict and explain a startling trend. Tyranny Comes Home unveils a new aspect of the symbiotic relationship between foreign interventions and domestic politics. It gives us alarming insight into incidents like the shooting in Ferguson, Missouri and the Snowden casewhich tell a common story about contemporary foreign policy and its impact on our civil liberties.

I loved 'Tyranny Comes Home'! It dives into the domestic impact of militarism in a way that really resonates. The author has a sharp way of connecting complex issues to our daily lives. I bought it as a gift for my brother who's into political science.

Disappointed with the delivery experience
The book itself is solid, but my copy arrived a week late and the cover was slightly scuffed. I had high hopes for this read, and while it's enlightening, the delivery experience was a letdown. Just be aware of shipping times!

Thought-provoking but dense
This book does a great job addressing serious topics related to militarism, but I found some parts a bit hard to get through. The writing can be heavy at times. Still, it's very informative and worth the read if you're interested in the subject.
