Includes Editor's Note, Preface, Acknowledgments, Appendices, Select Bibliography and Resources for…Further Reading, Index, and About the Editor and Contributors. James J. F. Forest is an author and a professor at the University of Massachusetts Lowell. He is also a senior fellow at the U.S. Joint Special Operations University and a visiting professor at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy. He is the former director of Terrorism Studies at the United States Military Academy. He has been cited as a terrorism expert by dozens of news outlets including CNN, CBS,The Globe Post, CNBC, and the Christian Science Monitor, and is co-editor of the academic research journal Perspectives on Terrorism. In all three volumes, the authors were asked not only to focus on what has been done in recent years to increase security, but also to alert us to persisting vulnerabilities. The underlying mission of this publication is to educate the general public on what each of us can do to reduce the vulnerabilities we share as a nation. As a whole, the volumes reveal the need for increased vigilance and public-private cooperation throughout the country, and they underscore the importance of the daily decisions made by every policy maker and individual citizen. America is a target; the homeland is under threat. While Americans have been targets of terrorist attacks for quite some time, September 11, 2001, awoke the nation to the reality that we are vulnerable in our homes, our places of work and worship, and our means of public transportation. And yet, we must continue to function as best we can as the world's most vibrant economic and political community. The current threat environment requires greater engagement with the public, as the necessary eyes and ears of the nation's homeland security infrastructure. However, to be effective, the public must be equipped with the knowledge of where and why specific locations and activities may be a terrorist target, what is being done to protect those targets, and how they can help. This three-volume set answers that need. The chapters of each volume of Homeland Security revolve around a core of central questions. Are we safer today than we were pre-9/11? What steps have been taken in all these areas to protect ourselves? What are the threats we face, and what new threats have developed since 9/11? Are we staying one step ahead of those who wish to do us harm? In 2002, more than 400 million people, 122 million cars, 11 million trucks, 2.4 million freight cars, and 8 million containers entered the United States. Nearly 60,000 vessels entered the United States at its 301 ports of entry. Clearly the amount of activity this represents will require a long-term commitment to innovation, organizational learning, and public vigilance to complement an already overstretched network of government agencies and security professionals. Volume 1, Borders and Points of Entry, addresses the question of how and where harmful people or material can enter the country, and how a combination of local, state, and federal agencies work with the private sector to ensure our security. Volume 2, Public Spaces and Social Institutions, covers a wide variety of potential vulnerabilities. Volume 3, Critical Infrastructure, deals with vital infrastructures and systems, attacks against which would yield not only significant loss of life but would also entail devastating economic and financial consequences.
