This book offers an overview of emerging security challenges in the
global environment in the post-Cold War era. After the fall of the
Berlin Wall and the subsequent shifting of international political
environment, a new broader concept of security began to gain
acceptance. This concept encompassed socio-economic-environmental
challenges, such as resource scarcity and climate change,
water-sharing issues, deforestation and forest protection measures,
food and health security, and large population migration. The book
examines the causes and consequences of these emerging security
threats, and retains a critical focus on evolving approaches to
address these issues. The author attempts to develop a framework
for sustainable security in a rapidly changing global political
landscape, which seeks to bring states and societies together in a
way that addresses weaknesses of the evolving international system.
Moreover, through a detailed analysis of the emerging security
issues and their pathways, the book further argues that the
evolving processes not only pose critical challenges but also
provide remarkable opportunity for cooperation and collaboration
among and within various stakeholders. This book will be of much
interest to students of global security, war and conflict studies,
peace studies and IR in general.
