The promotion of security is no longer a state monopoly. It is
dispersed and takes place through the practices of states,
corporations, non-governmental actors and community-based
organizations. But what do we know about the ways in which
'security' is thought about and promoted in this pluralized field
of delivery? Are democratic values being advanced and protected, or
threatened and compromised? Wood and Dupont bring together a team
of renowned scholars to shed light on our understanding of the
arrangements for contemporary security governance. Offering a
'friendly dialogue' between those who argue that democratic
transformation rests in the development of strong state
institutions and those who propose a more de-centered agenda, the
scholars in this volume bring cutting-edge theoretical analyses to
bear on empirical examples. This volume will appeal to researchers
in the fields of criminology, political science, sociology and
security studies.
