Imagining Security (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book considers how the issue of security is shaped by a range of actors and agencies in the public, private and nongovernmental sectors. The book has two key themes: that governance is now no longer simply shaped by thinking within the state sphere, but also within business and community spheres; and that these developments have implications for the future of democratic values as assumptions about the traditional role of government are increasingly challenged.
