SynopsisThis book looks at how a number of countries are meeting the challenge of employing existing military forces to carry out homeland security missions. The authors examine how Austria, Bulgaria, European Union, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Romania, Ukraine, the United Kingdom, and the United States have approached the issue of the employment of military forces in domestic security. This collection of essays offers readers the opportunity to compare and contrast these experiences and the lessons they offer for future contingencies involving the employment of military force in support of civil authorities.
