In his new book "The Lesser Evil: Political Ethics in the Age of Terror", Michael Ignatieff sets out to answer the question how can democracies defeat terrorism without losing the very democratic values for which they stand? It's a dilemma made clearer by the Iraqi prisoner abuse scandal. Original broadcast May 2004.
