De la contraportada


"This important book fills a gap in the academic literature by offering an opportunity for students to master key homeland security and emergency management subject matter through the practical consideration of case studies."
Jeff Bumgarner, University of Minnesota, Crookston
"Provides in-depth case studies of real events that will challenge students thinking about law, policy, war, peace, preparedness, and the appropriate response of a free society to threats at home and abroad."
Pamela Everett, Wayne State College
"A comprehensive, practical framework and approach for helping students critically think about a variety of current issues and topics in the emerging discipline of homeland security. It includes consideration of the relationship between homeland security focused on the threat of terrorism and emergency management related to natural or technological hazards, along with the important issue of environmental security."
Phillip Schertzing, Michigan State University
Editors James D. Ramsay and Linda Kiltz carefully curated fourteen cases, all from top scholars and practitioners, to cover a broad range of legal, policy, and operational challenges within the field of homeland security. Timely and interesting cases on such issues as arctic security, the use of drones in targeted killings, cyber security, and the emergency management lessons of the 2010 Haiti earthquake give students a deeper understanding of the relationship between the theories and the practices of homeland security. Discussion questions at the end of each case and an online instructor s manual make "Critical Issues in Homeland Security" an even more effective learning tool for any homeland security program.
