Addresses the debates in social theory by deploying three broad approaches to interrogate the War on Terror: discourse and performance; biopolitics and governmentality; and affect. This title demonstrates the reach of the War on Terror into a wide variety of social contexts, its effects, and how people are responding to it.
Drawing on critical geopolitics and related strands of social theory, this book combines new case studies with theoretical and methodological reflections on the geographical analysis of security and insecurity. It brings together a mixture of early career and more established scholars and interprets security and the war on terror across a number of domains, including: international law, religion, migration, development, diaspora, art, nature and social movements. At a time when powerful projects of globalization and security continue to extend their reach over an increasingly wide circle of people and places, the book demonstrates the relevance of critical geographical imaginations to an interrogation of the present.
