At a time when environmental crises and global pandemics pose interconnected existential threats to the very continuation of life, we urgently need to rethink our security priorities.
This book explains why insecurity has become such a ubiquitous feature of life in the 21st century and why policymakers, strategic analysts and many scholars are failing to recognise or address its underlying causes.
Beeson, a leading expert in international relations, analyses the forces creating the epidemic of insecurity that is currently sweeping the world and argues that power politics and militarism are not going to help us cure it.
