This book demonstrates how a state-first security ethic ultimately fails to secure states, the international community and, most important, human beings; how, we only can choose between degrees of insecurity; and true security remains elusive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a well-written and convincing read. . . . A good reference work for students, academics and others working with security issues on a national or international level. -- Naima Mouhleb, Uppsala University * Journal of Peace Research *\u003cbr\u003eGuided by a provocative and disquieting thesis that national security fails at every level, Neack skillfully analyzes how the international system, especially the United Nations, protects states and the great power state system.
