Inhaltsangabe

Terrorism and National Security Reform demonstrates that blue-ribbon commissions can be powerful vehicles for making public policy. The book overturns the conventional wisdom that views commissions only as tools for passing the buck. Jordan Tama explains how they forge bipartisan consensus and why they are especially valuable during a crisis.
