Abstract

Since the events of 9/11, police organizations across the world have refocused and strengthened their efforts against terrorism. Besides federal/national and international policing practices, reorganizations have also affected local police. This paper focuses on the local police response to terrorism in the United States and suggests important aspects of counterterrorism, in which local communities that are increasingly marked by a high degree of cultural diversity, need to be taken into account.
