Description:

This comprehensive Handbook will be of interest to both academics and postgraduates, as well as practitioners and specialists in security, foreign policy and governance.

Synopsis:

The Handbook of Governance and Security examines the conceptual evolution of security governance and the different manifestations of regional security governance. In particular, James Sperling brings together unique contributions from leading scholars to explore the role of institutions that have emerged as critical suppliers of security governance, and the ever-widening set of security issues that can be viewed profitably through a governance lens. The Handbook is divided into four sections which examine, in turn: the emergence, evolution, and forms of security governance, as well as the theoretical orientations that have so far dominated the literature (networks, multilateralism, regimes, and systems); the varieties and nature of security governance in eight discrete geostrategic regions; nine dimensions of governance that have been securitized in the post-Cold War period; and lastly the role of specific institutions in their regional context. This comprehensive Handbook will be of interest to both academics and postgraduates as well as practitioners and specialists in security, foreign policy, and governance.
