"International Security" is a cutting-edge analysis of the key
security challenges and developments in the post-Cold War world.
Drawing on a wide range of contemporary examples, from the Iraq war
to the rise of China, it is an essential guide for students and
policy makers seeking to understand the theoretical and empirical
debates over the fast-changing nature of international security
today.The book is organized into four main parts. Part 1 provides
an analytical framework for the book, identifying the most
significant post-Cold War shifts in international security and
recent theoretical developments in security studies. Part 2
analyses the root causes for contemporary warfare, the dilemmas and
debates over military intervention, and the role played by the UN,
NATO and other organizations in maintaining international peace and
security. Part 3 assesses the challenges of environmental security,
including the threat of resource-based conflict, most notably over
oil and water, and the perceived security challenges of
international migration. Part 4 discusses the new security
challenges posed by international terrorism, the proliferation of
weapons of mass destruction, and cyber warfare. It explores the
strategies and policies adopted by the United States, particularly
in the aftermath of 9/11 and assesses the implications of the rise
of China and other emerging powers.This book will be essential
reading for students and analysts of international relations,
international security and strategic studies.
