Critique, Security and Power (eBook, ePUB)

The Political Limits to Emancipatory Approaches

Produktbeschreibung

This book aims to engage with contemporary security discourses from a critical perspective. It argues that rather than being a radical, analytical outlook, much critical security theory fails to fulfil its promise to pose a challenge to contemporary power relations.
