Is there credible scholarship addressing when the use of drones against U.S. citizens might be legally permissible?
This question arises from national security debates. Targeted killing challenges constitutional protections. I want serious academic analysis, not media commentary.

From my experience, serious scholarship does exist, particularly after the al-Awlaki case. I have seen scholars debate due process, imminence, and feasibility of capture under constitutional and international law. Most analyses focus on whether procedural safeguards can exist outside traditional courts. I would recommend law review articles examining executive accountability rather than purely moral critiques, as they engage most directly with constitutional doctrine.
