Security studies, also known as international security studies, is
an academic subfield within the wider discipline of international
relations that examines organized violence, military conflict, and
national security. Meant to serve as an introduction to the field
of security studies, Contextualizing Security is a collection of
original essays, primary source lectures, and previously published
material in the overlapping fields of security studies, political
science, sociology, journalism, and philosophy. It offers both
graduate and undergraduate students a grasp on both foundational
issues and more contemporary debates in security studies. Nineteen
chapters cover security studies in the context of homeland security
and liberty, U.S. foreign policy, lessons from the Cold War,
science and technology policy, drones, cybersecurity, the War on
Terror, migration, study-abroad programs, the surveillance state,
Africa, and China. CONTRIBUTORS: Amelia Ayers, James E. Baker, Roy
