Selected publications

In January 2018, Chouraeshkenazi published Homeland & National Security: Understanding America's Past to Protect the Future, which identifies overlapping and distinctive responsibilities of the American federal government and how the U.S. Armed Forces protects the homeland, its territories, and resources.

The 32nd United States Deputy Secretary of Defense, Robert O. Work wrote:

This book covers a lot of complex subjects in a digestible, understandable way. Dr. Chouraeshkenazi methodically reviews how the uniquely American concepts of national security and homeland security have evolved both before and after the birth of our Republic. She then develops and explains how the two concepts intersect and overlap, especially since the terrible tragedy of September 11, 2001. By so doing, she suggests ways by which we might better confront emerging 21st-century threats to American security.

In June 2018, Chouraeshkenazi co-edited an anthology with Kyle Kattelman and Francis Boateng, Terrorism: Strategical & Methodological Approaches.
