Disaster Timelines

From contributor, Jarrell McAlister, we received a link to Disaster Timelines, which contains several well-laid out graphics chronicalling disaters and terror attacks in last 30 years or so.

Produced by Claire B. Rubin & Associates, a disaster research and consulting firm in Virginia, each timeline shows  major focusing events by year and the influences that each event had on major outcomes–– reports and analyses; federal statutes, regulations and executive orders; federal response plans; and major federal organizational changes.

• Terrorism Time Line: Major Focusing Events and U.S. Outcomes (1993-2004)
• Disaster Time Line: Major Focusing Events and U.S. Outcomes (1969-2004)
• Major Terrorism Events and Their U.S. Outcomes (1988-2003).
• The Homeland Security Time Line (2003)

Order any or all in hardcopy direct from the authors.

Thanks very much for the kind words about our charts.

Over the years we have had input from many people re the development of the text and graphic presentation. Our users really like this format, they tell us.
