Anotace knihy

We live in an insecure world. ISIS, Ebola, drone attacks, fracking...such factors threaten not only national security but human security as well. This revised edition of Seeking Security in an Insecure World reflects these new challenges, discussing these issues and more to provide a thorough, accessible introduction to contemporary security studies. The key issues examined reflect the broader conception of threats adopted by both state and non-state actors since the Cold War, from traditional threats such as nuclear proliferation to human security threats, such as pandemics. All chapters are updated and new topics are discussed, including the drone war begun after 9/11 and expanded by the Obama administration, the risks posed by Russia's annexation of Crimea and its intervention in East Ukraine, the West African Ebola crisis, immigration, economic security, as well as oil and natural gas production. Overall, the book provides a clear and compelling understanding of what security means today and how it can be best achieved.
