A Guide to National Security offers an analysis of the threats and
policy responses facing the UK, presented within the framework of
the Government's National Security Strategy and the Strategic
Defence and Security Review. It explores the processes and
developments which have shaped the transformation of national
security over the last three decades, and critically examines the
processes of politicisation and securitisation that have delivered
the new strategic vision.
Presented in three parts, the book has taken one of the key
recommendations from the National Security Strategy - collaboration
between police and national security agencies - and used this as
both the viewpoint from which to assess the current state of play
regarding the UK's national security, as well as the approach to
identifying future threats and creating policies and tactics to
deal with them. Part One: Threats sets the scene for the current
status of national security in the UK and relates this to the rest
of the world, before moving on to the myriad of possible threats
facing governments and intelligence services, from organised crime
and terrorism to cyber-threats and failed states. Part Two:
Responses looks at the interaction between governments and other
agencies in response to a threat, how that framework functions and
is organized, as well as the action or response taken. Finally,
Part Three: Strategies offers a range of considerations for the
future, including making a case for military restructuring,
discussing domestic policies regarding radicalisation and other
internal security issues, and the building of partnerships with the
EU and the rest of the world, as well as within current
international organizations, such as the UN and NATO. Throughout,
the book presents opinions from leading figures across the
agencies, including the National Security Council and members of
ACPO, as well as case studies and suggestions for further
investigation.
This book provides a number of fascinating and critical points for
those interested in the UK's own national security organization,
from those working in intelligence, counter-terrorism and organised
crime within the police, staff within the national intelligence
agencies, and policy advisers and officials. However, the
contemporary era of globalisation means that it also has resonances
for anyone involved in such issues across the Western world and
beyond.
