Description

Explore the history of U.S. diplomatic security through this detailed study of embassy construction and safety protocols. This book examines the origins of the Inman program, which was established by the U.S. Department of State following the 1983 terrorist attacks on the U.S. embassy in Beirut, Lebanon. The text provides an analysis of why the program faced significant hurdles, including difficulties in site acquisition, cost increases, and schedule delays. Readers will learn about the systemic weaknesses in program management that led to the completion of only 24 of the 57 planned construction projects. The narrative tracks the evolution of embassy safety from the demise of the Inman program in the early 1990s through the shift in construction initiatives in later years. It serves as a deep dive into the challenges of protecting personnel and managing large-scale government infrastructure projects in high-risk environments.
