This book examines questions about the changing nature of security
and insecurity in Pacific Island Countries (PICs). Previous
discussions of security in the Pacific region have been largely
determined by the geopolitical interests of the Global North. This
volume instead attempts to centre PICs' security interests by
focussing on the role of organisational culture, power dynamics and
gender in (in)security processes and outcomes. Mapping Security in
the Pacific underscores the multidimensional nature of security,
its relationship to local, international, organisational and
cultural dynamics, the resistances engendered through various forms
of insecurities, and innovative efforts to negotiate gender,
context and organisational culture in reducing insecurity and
enhancing justice. Covering the Pacific region widely, the volume
brings forth context-specific analyses at micro-, meso- and
macro-levels, allowing us to examine the interconnections between
security, crime and justice, and point to the issues raised for
crime and justice studies by environmental insecurity. In doing so,
it opens up opportunities to rethink scholarly and policy frames
related to security/insecurity about the Pacific. Written in a
clear and direct style, this book will appeal to students and
scholars in criminology, sociology, cultural studies, social theory
and those interested in learning about the Pacific region and
different aspects of security.
