Political science perspectives on transportation security
Tóm tắt
This article identifies some key issues for new research in transportation security from a political science perspective: network-centric security thinking; infrastructure vulnerability; the dilemma of public/private operation of security screening; policy coordination and market failure; and intermodal security. We argue of the importance of the ‘homeland security dilemma’: the more governments and corporations spend on security, the greater the perception of failure in the event of a low-probability disaster event, hence the greater the risk of investment; consequently actors have an incentive to move transportation security off the public agenda and avoid spending on security.
