This is a unique compendium on CD-ROM of the recently completed work of the United States Commission on National Security/21st Century, also know as the Hart-Rudman Commission. The commission was chartered to review in a comprehensive way national security requirements for the next century. It began in Phase I by describing the future security e... more »nvironment this nation should anticipate, and in Phase II it delineated a strategy to address that future-to cope with the challenges and seize the opportunities that will constantly confront this great nation. Phase III was focused on changes to the national security apparatus, its structures and process, with an aim toward redesigning it as necessary to succeed in the security environment that lies ahead. All three reports are included: PHASE 1: New World Coming, American Security in the 21st Century - Sept. 1999; PHASE 2: Seeking a National Strategy: A Concept for Preserving Security and Promoting Freedom - April 2000; PHASE 3: Building for Peace - March 2001 Also included: the Road Map for National Security, Addendum on Implementation and other addendum documents. The Phase III Report, issued early in 2001, had this chilling passage: "We believe that homeland security can best be assured through a strategy of layered defense that focuses first on prevention, second on protection, and third on response. Prevention: Preventing a potential attack comes first. Since the occurrence of even one event that causes catastrophic loss of life would represent an unacceptable failure of policy, U.S. strategy should therefore act as far forward as possible to prevent attacks on the homeland."
