Disaster Policy and Politics: Emergency Management and Homeland Security

In the Second Edition of Disaster Policy and Politics, author Richard Sylves covers the hottest and most controversial issues in the fields of disaster management and homeland security. The work provides a careful and balanced analysis of U.S. disaster politics and policy, paying special attention to the role of key actorsâ€”decision makers at the federal, state, and local levels. The bookâ€™s comprehensive â€œall-hazardsâ€ approach introduces readers to important public policy, organizational management, and leadership issues whether they aspire to be emergency managers or not. Crafted to be more instructor- and student-friendly, the 10-chapter volume includes boxed miniâ€“case studies depicting disasters large and small. Among its aims are to provide illuminating examples, context, and humanitarian relevance.
