This book provides a comprehensive summary of the creation of the
Department of Homeland Security and efforts to protect the United
States from international terrorism. Homeland Security: A Reference
Handbook covers the precursor events and laws from 1965 to 2000
that set the stage for the 2002 law that established the Department
of Homeland Security. It identifies and discusses a dozen problems
associated with homeland security policy objectively, allowing
readers to come to their own conclusions. Additionally, it
addresses all of the major units and agencies within the
department. Comprehensive in scope and accessible in style, it
discusses 46 organizations and profiles 50 actors. Unlike many
books on the topic, it provides excerpts and summaries of data,
presented in figures and tables and as documents from court
decisions, presidential actions, and key laws to implement homeland
security policy. It also annotates key secondary sources on the
topic, including books, scholarly journals, films, and videos to
guide the reader to further research on the subject.
