DESCRIPTION:When does a war begin? When does it end? Start dates and end da
 tes for wars are readily available in textbooks\, but are the beginnings a
 nd endings really so obvious? Currently\, the U.S. claims not to be at war
  with any nation\, yet it is claiming the existence of war as justificatio
 n for all sorts of policies\, from deportation to military occupation of A
 merican cities to tariffs. The confusion around the meaning of wartime is 
 not new. It dates back to the U.S. Civil War. Michael Vorenberg\, professo
 r of history at Brown University\, examines the ways that the Civil War cr
 eated modern\, elastic notions not only of war power but also of war time.
