Riassunto

U.S. Domestic and Transnational Terrorism is an easy-to-read and comprehensive primer detailing the essential information necessary to understand the current terrorist landscape and threats.

The book defines terrorism and outlines the distinctions between what are considered terror attacks, criminal acts, and hate crimes. In looking at both U.S. domestic and transnational terror organizations, the coverage provides a profile of groups’ tactics, attack and operational hallmarks, illegal activities to date, and the ongoing threats they present. The book highlights the need for preparedness and vigilance, but not paranoia – proposing ways in which American authorities and the citizens that they serve can greatly enhance terror awareness, preparedness, and prevention.

U.S. Domestic and Transnational Terrorism serves as both an essential manual and a reference book for a wide variety of readers. This includes homeland security practitioners, federal government and Department of Defense forces and protection personnel, security and anti-terrorism professionals, law enforcement agencies, fire and medical first responders, and academic institutions – offering courses in homeland defense, security, and transnational terrorism studies – and everyday citizens who wish to be informed and aware.
