柳約翰 原名有俊，（英語：John Yoo，1967年7月10日－），出生於韓國首爾，韓裔美籍法律學者，是加州大學伯克利分校的 Emanuel Heller 法學教授。他還是美國企業研究所的非常駐高級研究員和斯坦福大學胡佛研究所的訪問研究員。
曾在小布什總統任內出任美國司法部高級官員，因其批准美國陸軍與中央情報局在伊拉克戰爭中對戰俘施行暴力審訊（尤其是使用「坐水凳」方式）而飽受爭議。[1][2][3][4]
生平
同父母移民美國並定居費城，1993年獲得賓夕法尼亞州律師從業資格，在加州大學伯克利分校法學院就任教授。以優異成績獲得哈佛大學美國歷史學士學位。 在大學和法學院之間，他在華盛頓特區擔任報紙記者。他從耶魯法學院獲得了法學博士學位，是耶魯法律雜誌的文章編輯。[5]
2001年，小布什政府聘請柳約翰就任副助理司法部長，任期中主持批准對美國反恐戰爭中俘獲的戰俘實施被外界普遍視作酷刑的「加強審訊」，其中「坐水凳」一項尤其受到爭議。柳約翰認為，美國施行的這些審訊手段不受到日內瓦公約中保護戰俘權利條款的限制，同時布什政府批准這些審訊手段也不違反1996年頒布的《反戰爭罪法》。[6][7][8]另外，柳約翰還為布什政府實施的新竊聽計劃提供了法律依據。柳約翰的法律意見受到了布什政府其他官員的反對，其中包括時任國務卿的鮑威爾和海軍總法律顧問Alberto J. Mora[9]。柳約翰離任後的2003年到2004年間，司法部陸續撤銷了其就任期間負責制定的政策[10]，且於2009年頒布了一份調查報告譴責了柳約翰「故意的專業失當」[11][12][13][14]，然而柳約翰本人認為這些調查是出於政黨鬥爭而對他實施的報復行為。奧巴馬就任總統後正式宣布撤銷其就任期間提出的法律意見。[15][16]
2008年，一名在反恐戰爭期間獲刑的美國公民José Padilla起訴柳約翰失職導致其受到政府不公正待遇。[17]美國北加州區法院判決柳約翰一審敗訴[18]，但其後第九巡迴法院撤銷原判，判決柳約翰無過失。[19]曾任布什政府國務卿的鮑威爾在此案宣判後表示其認為柳約翰的作為違反了職業道德與法律。[20]2009年，一名西班牙法官指示西班牙檢查部門調查柳約翰等六名布什政府高官（媒體稱其為「布什六人幫」）任期內可能犯下的戰爭與反人類罪，但是西班牙檢方拒絕提出起訴。[21][22]
儘管其行政經歷飽受質疑，柳約翰從2003年退出政府後一直享受加州大學伯克利大學的教授待遇。校方稱柳約翰的政見受到學術自由的保護，並且拒絕了批評者提出的解除柳約翰聘約的要求。柳約翰則批判反對其政見的伯克利師生為「停留在越戰期間的原始穴居人類」，但是也聲稱他「非常喜歡在伯克利任教」。

Last week, I (a former Bush administration official) was sued by José Padilla—a 37-year-old al Qaeda operative convicted last summer of setting up a terrorist cell in Miami. Padilla wants a declaration that his detention by the U.S. government was unconstitutional, $1 in damages, and all of the fees charged by his own attorneys.
