homeland security  

Définition

  • Homeland security is a term broadly synonymous with domestic security and originally intended to reflect government plans to thwart terrorist attacks against the United States from within the nation's borders, such as occurred on September 11, 2001. However, particularly since Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the term has become synonymous for preparation and response to disasters, both man-made and natural.
