The Homeland Security mission represents an extraordinarily complex challenge for justice and public safety agencies seeking to implement a national strategy for identifying, preventing and responding to potential threats.
Despite good intentions and a significant amount of effort to develop a joint federal, state and local approach to the mission, it has proven very difficult to reconcile the interests and perspectives of agencies at different levels of government. The challenges do not come about because there is a lack of goodwill or desire. But often there is misunderstanding about the different imperatives various types of agencies face in coordinating a proactive policy that optimizes resources to address crime in general -- and terrorism in particular.
