Selected publications[edit]

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.[18][19]

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.

— Robert Work [20]

Ash Carter, the 25th United States Secretary of Defense and Director of the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, Harvard Kennedy School wrote,

In this new, incisive, informative book, Dr. Chouraeshkenazi helps undergraduate and graduate students understand how the nation's homeland security and defense are intertwined, and she provides readers with the framework to identify not just the challenges the nation faces, but also to develop the innovative solutions required to continue to protect this country from threats of all kinds. She appreciates that defense of the United States is so vital that we, to whom it is entrusted, must ensure defense across the domains of armed conflict not just air and land and sea, but space, and cyberspace, across military services and government agencies, from presidential administration to presidential administration and from strategic era to strategic era. This book was written with that world and mission in mind

— Dr. Ash Carter [21]

In June 2018, Chouraeshkenazi co-edited an anthology with Kyle Kattelman and Francis Boateng, Terrorism: Strategical & Methodological Approaches.[22][23]
