Transatlantic Homeland Security
Europe and the United States have reacted differently to the emergence of catastrophic terrorism and occasionally squabbled over how to deal with this new threat. Yet an effective response to a transnational problem has to be international. The premise of Transatlantic Homeland Security is that the ultimate effectiveness of efforts to prevent and protect against large-scale terrorism will be contingent on the ability of the US and its European partners to overcome their differences and cooperate closely. This book explains the concept of homeland security and the international requirements of success within areas such as:
• efforts against nuclear and biological terrorism
• protection of critical infrastructure
• defence against cyber-terrorism
• border and transportation security
• law enforcement efforts.
Moreover, it discusses how to integrate intelligence in the homeland security effort while protecting civil liberties and the right to privacy.
Transatlantic Homeland Security attempts to provide conceptual and practical guidance to analysts, policymakers, and practitioners at a crucial time when homeland security efforts should move beyond a still dominantly domestic focus. This book is essential reading for those with professional and research interests in security policy, counterterrorism, and international relations.
