This new book shows how from the end of the Cold War, the
security agenda has been transformed and redefined, academically
and politically.
It focuses on the theme of protection. It moves away from the
dominant question of whom or what is threatening to the crucial
questions of who is to be protected, and in the case of conflicting
claims, who has the capacity to define whose needs prevail.
It also poses the question of political agency in relation to some
of the most significant questions raised in relation to the
governance of insecurity and protection in the contemporary world.
The authors identify and explore issues that challenge or raise a
number of questions about the traditional notion that states are to
protect their citizens through retaining a monopoly over the
legitimate use of violence.
