With in-depth coverage of a wide range of issues–from terrorism, inter-state conflict, and nuclear deterrence to environmental security, health, and organized crime–Contemporary Security Studies, Fifth Edition is the definitive introduction to security studies. Bringing together leading scholars, it provides a student-friendly guide to critical theoretical approaches and the most important issues that dominate the modern security agenda.

Throughout the text, students are encouraged to question their own preconceptions and to use their own judgement to critically evaluate key approaches and ideas. To help them achieve this, each chapter is punctuated with helpful learning features including “key ideas”, “think points” and case studies which demonstrate the real world applications, relevance, and implications of the theory.
