Contemporary security has expanded its meaning, content and
structure in response to globalisation and the emergence of greatly
improved world-wide communication. The protocols of modern warfare,
including targeted killing, enhanced interrogations, mass
electronic surveillance and the virtualisation of war have changed
the moral landscape and brought diverse new interactions with
politics, law, religion, ethics and technology. This book addresses
how and why the nature of security has changed and what this means
for the security actors involved and the wider society. Offering a
crossdisciplinary perspective on concepts, meanings and categories
of security, the book brings together scholars and experts from a
range of disciplines including political, military studies and
security studies, political economy and international relations.
Contributors reflect upon new communication methods, postmodern
concepts of warfare, technological determinants and cultural
preferences to provide new theoretical and analytical insights into
a changing security environment and the protocols of war in the
21st century. A useful text for scholars and students of security
studies, international relations, global governance, international
law and ethics, foreign policy, comparative studies and
contemporary world history.
