Produktbeschreibung
Terrorism and national security have been in the foreground of the nation's political landscape since the uncertain times brought on by the attacks of September 11, 2001. This collection of scholarly essays provides a chance to learn from the past by offering an analytic--and sometimes provocative--look at the inseparability of security and history. This work is divided into separate elements depicting security on the national and international levels. "Part One-The US and National Security," focuses on topics such as "Rank-And-File Rednecks: Radicalism and Union Leadership in the West Virginia Mine Wars," among others. "Part Two-International Terrorism," looks at violence overseas, such as "Beyond Victims and Perpetrators: Women Terrorists and Their Own Stories."
