Description
Book SynopsisDrawing on an array ofpreviously classified materials andinterviews with security experts, Security Aid presents a critical analysis of the securitization of humanitarian aid.
Trade Review"This book shines much-needed light on the underbelly of Canadian international assistance. It is a must-read for anyone interested in a myth-busting critical analysis of Canada's foreign policy, foreign aid, and security and defence policy, as well as its use of the whole-of-government approach." -- Stephen Brown, Professor, School of Political Studies, University of Ottawa "In Security Aid, Jeffrey Monaghan presents a powerful, well-researched, and clear argument that will be a welcome addition to the critical study of security as 'governmentality' in general, and of the Canadian policy process in particular." -- David Mutimer, Professor and Chair of the Department of Political Science, York University
