Ronald Rychlak We are delighted to welcome Ronald J. Rychlak as our next guest blogger. Professor Ronald J. Rychlak is the Butler, Snow, O’Mara, Stevens and Cannada Lecturer and Professor of Law at the University of Mississippi School of Law, where he was formerly Associate Dean for Academic Affairs. Rychlak is the author or co-author of eight books, including Disinformation: Former Spy Chief Reveals Secret Strategies for Undermining Freedom, attacking Religion, and Promoting Terrorism, upon which his pieces for the Louis D. Brandeis Center Blog are based. Brandeis Center Blog readers will recall that Rychlak argues in Dininformation that the KGB deliberately fomented anti-Semitism in Muslim countries in order to turn them against the United States. We discussed this fascinating historical question in a prior blog entry and invited Rychlak to provide us with more background on the issue. Disinformation was co-authored by Ion Mihai Pacepa, the highest ranking Soviet Bloc intelligence officer ever to defect to the West. Former CIA Director R. James Woolsey called the book a “remarkable book [that] will change the way you look at intelligence, foreign affairs, the press, and much else.” Rychlak has also contributed chapters to several books and entries to several encyclopedias. He has been published in the UCLA Law Review, Boston College Law Review, Notre Dame Law Review, The Stanford Environmental Law Journal, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and numerous other periodicals and journals. We are very pleased to welcome Ronald Rychlak to the Blog.
