Popis: | This analysis seeks to attain two primary objectives. The first is to illustrate how U.S.-based information policy has been shaped and affected following the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States. The second is to produce a valid, qualitative evaluation regarding policy effectiveness, the impacts on public life, and best practices in government. Literature reviews from many disciplines and sources demonstrate that there has been a significant change in the U.S. information policy post-9/11. The findings of this study reveal what organizations and federal agencies dealing with information policy in emergency management and response have accomplished and what they have not accomplished. The discussion section offers future directions as to how to increase the effectiveness of emergency preparedness and management. |
