Kowalski DetailsDetails The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, made Americans aware of their vulnerability and concerned about their safety. The government responded in part by establishing the Department of Homeland Security, instituting new rules for travel, and passing the Patriot Act. Many people think that some of these changes curtail our civil liberties unduly. Others think that giving up some liberty for safety is a worthwhile trade. In A PRO/CON LOOK AT HOMELAND SECURITY: SAFETY VS. LIBERTY AFTER 9/11, author Kathiann M. Kowalski examines the arguments on both sides of the debate. In addition, she outlines the changes that have taken place and looks at the future of homeland security.Publication Date: 01/01/2008Copyright: 2008Pages: 104Trim Size: 6 1/2 x 9 1/4Illustrations: Illus. with color photographsGrade Level: 6–upAge Level: 11–upLC Number: 2007024524Dewey: 363.340973FormatsFormatISBNList PriceDiscount PriceLibrary Bound Book978-0-7660-2914-9$34.93$26.20 Loading… Other books in Issues in Focus Today 1234 Loading… Other books from the authors 1 Loading… Library Bound Book: 978-0-7660-2914-9 List Price: $34.93 Discount Price: $26.20 + Add to wish list Please log in Log in or register to create a wish list.
