Description

Although prominentsome would argue pre-eminentwithin the modern political lexicon, the concept of security' is complex and contested. While the meaning and reference point of security was once largely taken for granted within International Relations, the past thirty years or so have witnessed the growth of a range of approaches that refuse to take this concept and its application as self-evident. Instead, serious scholarship, often grouped under the rubric of Critical Security Studies', has sought to question and critique dominant conceptions of security, to introduce new theoretical approaches to the assessment of security discourses and practices, and to expand the range of issues considered within security analysis. This new four-volume collection from Routledge provides a timely anthology of the subdiscipline's best and most influential scholarship to help users make sense of a now dizzyingly large body of literature and a continuing explosion in research output.
