Collective Securitisation and Security Governance in the European
Union presents an integrated theory of collective securitisation -
a theoretical foundation for explaining how the process of
collective securitisation sustains and makes effective an
identifiable system of regional security governance. The volume
demonstrates the empirical utility of collective securitisation in
the EU security space through a set of structured case studies
focusing on the collective securitisation of terrorism, cyberspace,
migration, energy, health and climate change. The contributions to
this collection address three questions: Under what conditions does
collective securitisation occur? How does collective securitisation
affect the scope and domains of EU security governance? And how
does collective securitisation explain the emergence of the EU
system of security governance? This volume breaks new ground in the
field of EU security studies and provides a theoretical orientation
that contributes to our understanding of how and why the EU has
developed as a security actor in the 21st century. Developing and
testing the theory of collective securitisation with reference to
some of the most pressing contemporary security issues, Collective
Securitisation and Security Governance in the European Union will
be of great interest to scholars of the European Union and Security
Studies. The chapters were originally published as a special issue
of West European Politics.
Scholarship on NATO is often preoccupied with key episodes in the
development of the organisation and so, for the most part, has
remained inattentive to theory. This book addresses that gap in the
literature. It provides a comprehensive analysis of NATO through a
range of theoretical perspectives that includes realism, liberalism
and constructivism, and lesser-known approaches centred on
learning, public goods, securitisation and risk. Focusing on NATO's
post-Cold War development, it considers the conceptualisation,
purpose and future of the Alliance. This book will be of interest
to students and scholars of international organisation,
international relations, security and European Politics.
Theorising NATO builds upon a range of theoretic perspectives to
analyze the work of NATO, and its relationship to the European
Union. In doing so, it addresses a gap in IR scholarship, allowing
the reader to interpret the work of NATO.
The book takes into account pluralist theoretic approaches,
including tradition modes of realism, liberalism and
constructivism, as well as newer approaches such as securitisation
and risk. It focuses on how NATO 's post-Cold War development might
be understood and explained, thus considering the
conceptualisation, purpose and future of the Alliance.
Theorising NATO will be of interest to students and scholars of
International Organisation, International Relations and European
Politics.
For 2nd and 3rd year courses in international politics and foreign
policy. This text examines foreign policy in relation to 'change
and transformation.' It discusses traditional assumptions about
foreign policy and foreign policy making, and develops a framework
to facilitate analysis of the challenges faced by foreign policy
makers in the late 1990s. The central elements of the framework are
the foreign policy arena, decision-making and implementation. The
book then applies the framework to a set of regional case studies,
to explore the global and regional arenas and the challenges to
which they give rise. Finally, specific case studies of two
countries per region highlight the range of impacts for the
changing global and regional context, to focus on the analysis of
decision-making and implementation, and to illustrate the benefits
of comparative analysis.

Returning to London for a second year, 'The Race of Champions'
brings together a host of the top names from the world of
motorsport. Stars past and present from Formula 1, the World Rally
Championship and Superbikes compete in a series of events inside
Wembley Stadium. Top names include Michael Schumacher, Sebastien
Loeb, Troy Bayliss and Mark Webber.
In his trademark straight-talking, no-nonsense style Mark Webber
reveals his amazing life on and off the Formula One race track in
Aussie Grit. Mark Webber was at the centre of one of the most
captivating chapters in the history of Formula One. In 2010, while
racing for Red Bull, he and his team mate Sebastian Vettel went
head to head for the World Championship. There could only be one
winner. Since retiring from Formula One Mark has concentrated on
endurance racing, including the legendary Le Mans 24 Hour race. He
hit the front pages of newspapers around the world in December 2014
when he slammed into the barricades in the final round of the FIA
World Endurance Championship in South America, and was lucky to
escape with his life. But the controversy of his relationship on
and off the track with Vettel, who went on to win multiple world
titles, has never been far beneath the surface. Here, for the first
time, Webber tells the inside story of one of Formula One's most
intriguing battles - it is a story that goes to the heart of why
the sport is loved by millions of fans around the world. From his
first taste of karting to his F1 debut in 2002, scoring Minardi's
first points in three years at the Australian Grand Prix, through
to his first win with Red Bull at the 2009 German Grand Prix and
the year he should have been crowned World Champion. Mark Webber's
journey to the top of Formula One was every bit as determined and
committed as his racing. Aussie Grit is his searingly honest story.
Includes a foreword by Formula One legend Sir Jackie Stewart.
