Poverty and the Critical Security Agenda argues that poverty should
be a central concern of security studies and critiques existing
methodological approaches to poverty and 'well-being'. Using the
Philippines as a case study, this book is critical of approaches to
poverty that portray the poor as passive objects as opposed to
dynamic actors. With this in mind, the relationship between poverty
and democracy, as a means to facilitating human security, is
central. Poverty acts as a major behavioural force in international
relations, not least for the state, and therefore merits increased
visibility within the research agenda. This text is highly relevant
for courses on international relations methodology and critical
theory, development studies, security studies and international
political economy.
