Andrew W. Neal argues that while 'security' was once an
anti-political 'exception' in liberal democracies - a black box of
secret intelligence and military decision-making at the dark heart
of the state - it has now become normalised in professional
political life. This represents a direct challenge to critical
security studies debates and their core assumption that security is
a kind of illiberal and undemocratic 'anti-politics'. Using
archival research and interviews with politicians, Neal
investigates security politics from the 1980s to the present day to
show how its meaning and practice have changed over time. In doing
so, he develops an original reassessment of the security/politics
relationship.
