Homeland Security: Bridging the Transatlantic Gap

Conference: Copenhagen, September 19-21, 2003

By means of tactical surprise, determination, and ruthlessness the new terrorism has proven itself capable of causing mass casualties and creating mass disruption. The US remains the most acutely threatened society, but no European country should consider itself immune. The Nordic countries, due to their open societies and heavily export-based economies share a number of the societal vulnerabilities of the US. Yet, national protective initiatives will not do for any of the Western world’s complex and interdependent societies. Homeland security is thus a transatlantic concern.

The conference brings together politicians, officials, experts, and opinion leaders from the Nordic countries and the US to discuss four areas of common Nordic-American concern: Securing dangerous materials in the former Soviet Union, cyberterrorism, bioterrorism, and container security.
