Beginning with a historical backdrop describing the dawn of the age of global terrorism in the 1960s and continuing up until the present time, this volume demonstrates the broad social and political context underlying the aviation security system that was in place on September 11th and the system that has evolved in response to the 9/11 attacks. Examining ongoing threats and vulnerabilities, the book describes how they have come to shape U.S. policy and strategy. Topics discussed include legislation, intelligence gathering, best practices for risk management, in-flight security measures, and passenger, baggage, and employee screening methods.
