Case studies demonstrate the complexity of challenges within the domain of homeland security policy and administration. 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"--cProvided by publisher.20aUnited States.bDepartment of Homeland SecurityvCase studies. 0aNational securityzUnited StatesvCase studies. 0aUnited StatesxPolitics and governmentvCase studies. 0aUnited StatesxForeign relationsvCase studies.1 aKiltz, Linda Ann. aRamsay, James D.
