CHDS Thesis Series: Creating Domestipol: Increasing National Resilience by Reflecting on the NYPD Counterterrorism Model [video]   [open html - 0B]

"Gus Rodriguez discusses the challenges of information sharing between police departments in the 50 largest cities in the US, advocating a model similar to INTERPOL [International Criminal Police Organization], but on an inter-state level, called DOMESTIPOL. Conducting his research through largely open-source information, Rodriguez advocates an increased emphasis on 'horizontal' communication - between different departments around the country - in addition to 'vertical' communication - between local, state and federal levels."
