Items related to Critical Security Studies And World Politics
British, North American, Australian, and Irish scholars of international relations and other social sciences offer a more complex picture of security than has been constructed in mainstream security studies since World War II: thus critical security studies. They hope to help students understand that there are different and more complex ways of thinking about security than the dismal ideology of political realism, ways that can actually lead to people living together more easily than in the recent past. Community and emancipation are major themes. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Book Description Hardback. Condition: New. New copy - Usually dispatched within 4 working days. Realist assumptions of security studies increasingly have been challenged by an approach that places the human being, rather than the state, at the center of security concerns.
