商品簡介
The authors (all at Syracuse University) apply political science, public affairs, and legal perspectives to understanding terrorism and the available strategies, policy options, and approaches that the United States employs or could employ to respond to terrorism. They offer chapters on identifying and assessing the terrorist threat; the causes of and responses to terrorism; interdiction and investigation; law enforcement and its methods; planning for homeland security; incident response; international cooperation; media, government, and terrorism; and military responses to terrorism. Throughout their discussion, they integrate historical case material to illustrate their arguments. Annotation c2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
