Global Insecurity
Description
Reviews / Votes
"Daily we are assaulted by evidence of chaos and disorder threatening to tear apart the very centre of institutionalised global governance, from geopolitical tensions and population displacements to ecological crises and humanitarian atrocities. With existing norms, ethics, state practices and organisational arrangements no longer fit for purpose in addressing increasingly globalised insecurity, there is a compelling need for the creative thinking and innovative solutions offered in this powerful collection of original essays." (Ramesh Thakur, Director of the Centre for Nuclear Non-Proliferation and Disarmament, Australian National University)
