Résumé

"This essay is divided into four parts. In part one, the frequency and characteristics of terrorist attacks on the United States, especially since 9/11, is considered. In the second part of the essay, how terrorism is similar to and different from ordinary street crime is considered. These similarities and differences have important implications for policing terrorism. In the third part of the essay, some of the ways that the 9/11 attacks changed policing are considered. Because much of the police work aimed at preventing terrorist attacks happens at the federal level, in particular major changes in FBI strategies since 9/11 will be examined. The move toward a more proactive approach to terrorism after 9/11 has important implications for policing at all levels. And, finally, the information from the first three sections is used to consider some of the implications for policies on policing terrorism in the twentyfirst century."--Includes text from pages 1-2.
