This title was first published in 2003. This three-volume set
examines the relationship between government and civil society in
their efforts to define and pursue security. Including the results
of an extensive research program, each volume is organized around
one of the three principal themes - environment, people and
globalization, supplying compelling evidence of the tension between
economic change and human well-being. Challenging the conventional
wisdom about the beneficial results of economically induced change,
this first volume suggests that too often the mismanagement of
development jeopardizes the security of individuals, families,
communities, and possibly the state, by harming the very
environment which is required to sustain both people and their
economic existence. Bringing together an international group of
scholars from a variety of disciplines, this volume is particularly
relevant for academic and general research communities in the areas
of social, economic, political and security matters of Southeast
Asia.

This book takes up a wide variety of human security challenges
beyond the dimension of human conflict, and looks at both natural
and human disasters that the East Asian region faces or is
attempting to resolve. While discussing various human security
issues, the case studies offer practical lessons to address serious
human security challenges in the framework of the ASEAN Plus Three
and beyond. Against the backdrop of multifaceted globalization and
parochial reactions thereto, this book is a powerful contribution
to universal human security.
