| Abstrakt: | The article focuses on the criticism concerning the response of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), an agency under the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), to the Hurricane Katrina. In congressional investigation, Senator Susan Collins called FEMA's response to the hurricane a failure and added that DHS shared the responsibility for the failure. The author also investigates the cultural clash and structural problems emanating from FEMA's merger with DHS. |
